Hi there, sorry if this is a repeat question.  Anyone have a pic or diagram of how to reassemble the pulleys / tensioner, and how to route the belt?  One more...what are the 4 holes for at the rear of the seat deck (above the logo decal)?

Cheers, 

Mike

:WRS:  Nice looking tractor!!

 

It looks like you have your belt routed correctly but the tension/idle pulley is not putting tension on it. I'm guessing that either the return spring is not attached or the parking brake is set in the picture.

 

The holes in the back of the seat pan were most likely there to accommodate a tail light.

 

Here is a picture of a typical belt routing. Older tractor but same concept.

Return spring for the idle/tension pulley should be on the brake side of the tractor.

Taillight needs two mounting holes (the outer ones) and one for the power line.

The extra hole? Different vendors' taillight bases had the power lines enter in different places so WH covered themselves for either one!

That spring and pulley is for the PTO drive for the mower deck, snow blower, etc.

      VBelt trouble 252-H
      By cJ_3D
      Hello everyone! 
       
      Thought I would post a new thread on this as I wasn't able to find the information I was looking for. But I'm trying to get this drive belt on my 252-H and no matter what I try I can't get it on. I got a 1/2" x 76" so I know its the correct size belt. I followed the steps outlined in the manual which I've attached, and is shown on page 15. So I loosened the cross bar nuts and the flat idler adjustment pulley. And followed the routing from this guide: http://outdoorpowerinfo.com/repairs/wheel_horse_hydro_252-h_drive_belt.asp
       
      I just can't get enough slack on it to get it over the engine pulley! Right now it's pinched up between the body and the pulley so possibly I can't get enough leverage, do I need to somehow work it from below the pulley? Doesn't help the pulley keeps coming off the shaft so I have it propped up using a scissor jack which is cumbersome to work around. I don't have a shop or anyway I can think of to safely stand the mower up and not sure about tipping it on it's side. Anyone who has done this particular belt on this mower before have any tips or suggestions for how to get this thing on?
       
      Thanks for the help friends!

      Workhorse 1971 or 72
      By drewd
      Hi All,  I have a 71 or 72 Model # 101006, Serial # 790336.  Model number chart says 71 but the paper for the engine has a print code 72.  The closest I could find was for models 1-3745 & 1-3741.
      Two questions.  I finally need to replace the drive belt.  This manual list the belt as # 1576. 
      Two questions:
      1)  Does anyone know what size that translates to?  I do have the old belt but the inside edge is falling apart so it will measure a little longer than it should.
      2) This tractor has the electric clutch.  What is the best way to remove the belt?
       
      As always...Thanks!

      So... now in confused
      By midpack
      I had a drive belt let go on a 1980 C-175 Sundstrand hydro. After searching the manuals it looks like either an 83" or an 85 1/2" belt is called for. 
      Anyone know the right length off the top of their head?
      Thanks

      208-4 Changing Drive Belt
      By dambur
      I need to change the Drive Belt on my Wheel Horse 208-4SB Model 42-08B401.  I really need some step by step instructions or a service manual. I can't seem to find the procedure anywhere.  PIctures would be great.  My mower is slow going forward and It was suggested to me to change the drive belt.
       
      Thanks
