My belts are turning the blades when sitting still But it isnt cutting the grass when moving. My one belt is pretty worn.. Would this cause slippage preventing it from cutting.
Yes It would. The belt doesn't just wear it slackens also. It will probably turn the blades when not under load but as soon at it attempts to cut grass there is not enough grip.
Replace the belts first and it should be fine.

Marc

The 13 HP mower on the swisher 60" pull behind mower I have also dies out when cutting. Seems to happen when egine gets real warm on warm days. Motor has had tune up and carb cleaned and air cleaner has been cleaned routinely. i though maybe it was a carburator float bowl problem but know think these motors are under powered and when it gets real warm they get to hot and just quit. Seems my history if the mower sits for a few days and use on a cooler day I might get an hour or so before the quitting starts.
