I need a diagram for the blade drive belt for model# 917.272247

try SearsPartsDirect.com

I DON'T HAVE IT ON HAND, BUT YOU CAN TYPE IN ON GOOGLE SEARCH "YOUR MODEL # DECK BELT DIAGRAM" TO FIND IT, BUT TO DO IT YOURSELF, JUST REMEMBER THAT BLADES MUST TURN COUNTERCLOCKWISE AND THAT GROOVED PULLEYS MUST FACE THE INSIDE OF BELT AND FLAT PULLEYS THE OUTSIDE OF FACE OF BELT, ALSO REMEMBER THAT SOME MODELS HAVE JUST ONE BELT (DRIVE AND DECK BELT) OR TWO BELTS (DRIVE BELT AND DECK BELT)

Route the deck drive belt between the two inner, forward pulleys and then out and around the outer blade pulleys.

Please find attached a "amateur" drawing of the belt routing for the 37x89MA primary deck drive belt. Hope this helps.

there are as many belt diagrams as there are mowers. You will need your model number to get the correct diagram. You should find this under the seat or on the very back of the unit. sorry can't help more at this time, when you get this, you can get online and go to sears and you will find it there.

Locate your model number and serial number off the tag under the seat,

GO TO; www.murray.com/manuals/index.cfm?rd=1

Type in your model number and an owners manual/parts manual will download. There will be a diagram in there for drive belt, blade belt and a ton of other useful information

Hope this helps you out

For removing/replacing the deck belt, the general method is:

1. turn off engine, remove key and set parking brake
2. disengage blade by putting blade engage lever into off (disengaged) position
3. lower the cutting deck to the lowest position (closest to the ground)
4. relieve the belt tension (depending on the model, use a 3/8 inch ratchet set to tighten in the square hole of the idler bracket)
5. remove and replace the belt

NOTE: it's not necessary to completely remove the cutting deck.

If the transmission drive belt needs to be replaced, several components must be removed and special tools (i.e. air/impact wrench) used in order to change the tractor's transmission drive belt. See an Authorized Toro Service Dealer to have your drive belt replaced.

Ranch King is a brand name of the manufacturer MTD.

Product manuals with part blow-up diagrams are available from MTD's web site,
http://www.mtdproducts.com/
Models are identified from the model number printed on a label under the mower seat.
The PTO and deck drive belts are shown on one diagram and the transmission drive belt is shown on another. The Form number on my printed Operator's Manual is 770-10526A (22HP, 46in cut) for Hydrostatic 817/818 models.

Parts can be ordered directly from MTD or other distributors on the web.

It is my experience that original brand name MTD belts work best.

The 22HP, 46" mower deck Ranch King Pro has 3 belts:

The drive belt which runs from the engine pulley back to the hydro drive unit to provide over-the-ground propulsion is part #754-0349.

A mower has either an electric PTO or a manual PTO, not both.

The electric PTO belt the provides power to the blade deck (runs around the electric clutch on the engine shaft (activated by electric switch, not the mechanical hand lever that engages the mower deck) is p/n 754-0476 for the 46" deck.

The manual PTO belt the provides power to the blade deck (runs off the pulley on the engine shaft (activated the mechanical hand lever to the left of the steering wheel that engages the mower deck) is p/n 754-0228 for the 46" deck.

The deck belt that goes around the 3 blade spindle assemblies on the mower deck, to drive the grass cutting blades is p/n 754-0349

In my experience, the PTO belt lasts about half a season, the other belts break about every other season when mowing 4 acres weekly.
