Thank you. I was able to just pull the pulley covers off on either side. Clean all the grass underneath and replace the belt without taking the deck off. This helped me understand what I was looking at under there.

In my opinion, a good diy video is one that answers the questions that are not in a manual, PDF, or repair literature. They never tell you the tricks of the trade. Your video is awesome. Short, straight to the point, and answers the little questions that can make a job much easier. Don't you hate the diy videos where the guy is more concerned with making a blockbuster with a ten million word dialogue, Talkin' and talking and trying to be clever. OMG, it'll drive a man who only wants the data crazy. Thank you for keeping it professional and you're very good at describing the entire process. I especially appreciate the tool recommendations at the very beginning. Good job mate 👍👍

Best video I’ve seen yet on replacing the belt

Hi Brad. Excellent video along with terrific tips. I was just talking to my wife about how KZfaq videos are 80% waste of time, 20% actual helpful instructions. Infuriates me when people put up a video then talk about everything except the task itself. Further, picture quality and sound are often terrible. Not so with your videos! They are absolutely pro quality. Your descriptions, speech, and actions should be featured in a video of "how to make an effective KZfaq video". Can't thank you enough for your professionalism and super helpful instructions!

Excellent video. Quick tip: in a pinch, yes you can replace the belt without taking the deck off.

Outstanding video quality in every way. If only they were all this well done...

Nice job. This is one of the best DIY videos I've seen. After watching it though I decided to try threading a new belt without removing the mower deck. That was successful and only took 15 minutes!

Hey, this was amazing! Broke my belt while mowing over the weekend and was worried this would be a few hundred dollars to fix (having someone else do it). You made this look immaculately simple, though. I'm 100% confident this is within my skill set and I'm going to knock it out this weekend! Absolutely fantastic video, thank you so much for making it.

You covered it ALL….even putting the butterfly clips back in properly. I followed it step by step successfully, and I’m not very mechanically inclined. Well Done! Thank you very much.

This could be the best "How To" video I've ever seen. Great Job and thanks for the help!

Great tutorial! Seems like they could design an even simpler way to replace a belt though you made it look easy. Thanks!

What a great video! One of the best, most informative and easy to follow that I've ever seen on KZfaq. Thanks for helping me out!

Very understandable video. you explained everything so clearly that even a city slicker like me can understand it. i have the manual but this video is so much easier to understand.

you can absolutely replace the belt with deck on i have a 20k46 and i dont remove the deck to replace the belt, to each their own though ! great quality video

Excellent Video. Changed mine out with no issues. Did exactly as instructed. Thanks!!!

Thank you for your informative video.. I never had a manual and the store that assembled my riding tractor gave me the wron product #. I never looked under the hood for the part# labels plus behind the battery. Thanks again!!!

This is exactly what i needed to know about that weight cable thing! I just got this tractor used and this is totally helping!

As previously stated, this is an excellent video. Good job.

Thank you so much. took me about an hour. Directions are spot on.

Thank you so much with this video. I was able to change my first belt in 10 minutes. Truly grateful.

Very well done! Appreciate the added advice. Can't get that from a shop manual. THANKS!

Really good vid. This guy does a great job.

Great video! I was able to easily get the deck out to change the belt and have it operational on the first try (rare for me)!

Great video! Concise & easy to understand. Wish there were more like this.

This is an excellent DIY video. Great job!

Thank you for such clear directions!

Thank you for such detail. I got mine fixed in about 45 minutes. For note, I am a not mechanically inclined women and did this by myself.

great video as always. I love that you tell people to make sure you have the right part. I have an OLD hardware store near me. I have used any belt that was the same size on my old mower I had 15 years ago. It slipped off at times, and it was a real pain in the A. If I had bought the correct belt, I would have had less trouble, SO to everyone else get the right part always. Have a great day Mr. Johnson.

Awesome 😎 love the mower deck adjustment modification you suggest. Guaranteed Golf course ⛳️ cut

Thank you for this video!! It helped me to repair my mower!

Excellent instructions! Thank you!

That was another great video, I used your video to remove the deck the first time. I'm just making sure I know all I can about the belt too. It seems the quality of the Husqvarna is a bit lacking. The complete bracket that holds the deck on broke off, the weld job was so bad they missed most of the bracket. Even if they would have gotten it the weld was cold! All repaired now and I have everything serviced and ready to put he deck back on.

Great video. Well done, Sir. This video was very helpful. Thank you!

Nice job on this video. Very good. Even I didn't mess it up!!

Very good instructional video.

Prosto, konkretnie i na temat. Najlepszy kanał jaki oglądałem na temat napraw traktorka Husqvarna. Mam taki sam. Subskrybcja i łapka zasłużone.

My AIRENS is exactly the same except for the hood, they wereade a couple years by Husqvarna, they quit making yard tractors for Airens, best yard tractor i ever had just turned 10 years old, 22 horse, Briggs going strong 🎉

Really appreciate the how to video. Great job on the step by step

I sincerely want to thank you for this awesome video. I was going to bring my Southern States tractor to the dealer to replace the belt. It’s the same model as a Husquavarna. I watched the video and then played it for every step of the process. Some of the clips were a bear to get off but got it apart and followed every step. My only issue was putting on that back tensioner. I don’t recall you saying to raise the deck and I did and was able to get it on. My wife was like do you think it will work and I was like yes this nice man told me how to do this! I started the yard tractor and cut my whole yard which takes like an hour. Thank you a million times over. Can I send you a tip? Do you have a virtual tip jar? You are smarter with one hand than I am with 2 ! ~Rick

Fantastic video!!. Thank you so much for your help

Thank you, you made my life so much easier😊

Awesome video! Thanks for walkthrough

Thanks a lot for this. Nice & clear. Will try this tomorrow on my CTH 184t. I doubt it's that much different. It just dropped the belt and I suspect the bars that keep the belt on the pulleys need adjusting.

Thanks!! Helped me a lot. Great video!

Thanks! I was able to do this for the first time

Great video!! Helped a ton

Great video! thanks for posting it.

Nice detailed video; thanks for posting.

perfect video. saved my day

Excellent video

Great video! Thanks for posting! Saved me $$

Great video! Thanks!!

I was able to replace the belt on my YTA33V46 by simply removing the pulley guard covers on both sides and dropping the deck all the way. I didn't have to remove the deck at all. It took me less than 15 minutes.

Bien explicado grasias por compartir

You explained so well that I could follow right along! Thank you! On the the stupid trimmer! Have you covered what to do if the clutch & head spin free but not when it is running? STIHL FS40C

So much easier to change belt when you remove the deck!

one heck of a video , I am out to the garage thk You

Great video

Well done!

Thank you so much for the detailed instructions! We successfully changed the belt! Do you happen to have any tips on how to fix the engine surging? We have a new carburetor and air filter and the fuel filter is clean… and still no luck. We think it is the governor spring that won’t stay connected. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!!

Thanks so much for your informative and well-produced segments! Question, please: I’ve replaced the left and right belt keepers on my YTH 18542, both which broke directly below the mounting bolt on separate occasions. I’m really puzzled by this, since my lot is flat, and I go pretty easy on the mower. It doesn’t seem like these belt keepers are under much general stress. Would you be willing to speculate on what might be causing them to fail? Thanks!

Thank you.

Is this the same process at the YTH18542? Amazing video sir. Very informational.

I followed your steps exactly. When reassembling I can't get the two black arms to line up back up with the frame. I unhooked the belt from pulley then attached the arms. Now I can't get the belt back on the front pulley.

I need your help. I have a ts 242xd. It has the electric blade engagement. I used your video and got the deck off, my belt was broken. I got the deck and belt back on but it’s too much tension to put it all back together. What am I missing??? It’s the correct belt.

Thanks

I have been doing replacement belts for 50years. Good video, but now my blades won't turn Spring woks to engage, but no tension on belts. Any suggestions?

Hi there. Amazing video but I have a Husqvarna YTH2246TDR that the new drive belt keeps coming off. Is there a tightened adjustment as says v be,t can’t be tightenEd in manual. Is there a way I can check it’s in the keepers without taking the who,e deck off, I’m 76 and want to avoid big charges to get someone ou. Thanks in anticipation

I just did mine in 5 minutes without removing deck good video though

Awesome video. But can you help me? I have looked up my belt on line, got size and number, bought and it's too big. I have the YTH21K46. I have seen many say it's a 105 in belt. Some say .75 and some say .85. we bought the 105.85 because the numbers matched. But as I said it's too big. Do I need the 105.75 then? When I used the product number it gave me the same number for this belt which seems too loose when engaged. Thanks 😊

Explained that one pretty well. But why not 2 deck adjusters?

Hey Brad I'm Brendon imagine if Husqvarna put 2 non adjuster hangers on their decks

How do you do the clutch cable

Can the belt not be done without removing the deck?

Helpful video, thank you. I replaced the mower deck belt - still struggling that it does not engage even when installed correctly. I did find one of the belt guide posts broken off - I think it was the J bracket on the right hand side of the drive pully - not sure how essential that is or how to repair. I also wanted to suggest that the "nub" you refer to on the belt tensioner bracket is intended to make sure that the belt tensioner bracket is aligned correctly. On my mower, the bracket was installed so that the nub fit in the bracket slot and ensured correct alignment. Does that make sense to you?

Under the hood tells yeah everything

Idk if you took the deck out to make it easier to see what you're doing, but you totally don't have to.

Uuuhhhh...you forgot to put your pully covers back on

Very helpful!
