gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,096 #2 Posted September 1, 2019 This is a later manual that illustrates belt installation better. May be a different style and size of deck but the belt placement is the same. Yes the drive belt goes to the top pulley. Spindle belt on the lower center pulley so it lines up with the others. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
