Thanks for a very informative video. That old belt may have been longer from being stretched out but, your lubricating and cleanup of the area was spot on. Thanks again for going through the process.

Appreciated viewing and listening to this video replacing deck belt on JD Z445 Zero Turn. The tricks of only loosening pulleys when possible is a pro tip. One more tip is coat the underside of the deck with spray lithium grease or similar to displace rust plus debris will slide right off. It won't last forever but it lessens build up for a while.

I put anti seize lubricant on my threads, from all the heat it makes it easier to take off the next time

Small tip... Park the mower then back it up enough to turn the front wheels around, then take everything off.

Wow your bearings are really holding a lot of heat with all that crap on the deck, leave the covers off and take a leaf blower and clean after mowing! It only takes a minute and saves a ton of headaches!

Not my mower. But you're right. Keep your mower deck clean, people!

Using a torque wrench as a breaker bar? Bad idea!

@Buckwsr 3 жыл бұрын

Nope. It's an old, unreliable torque wrench that I picked up at a yard sale. I've never used it as a torque wrench. I have demoted it to breaker bar status whenever I need some extra leverage.

Uhhh if they don't give a $hit about keeping it clean why would I? Unless you factored it in as part of the job or the customer requested it. Get the job done and get to next one.
