How do i get the drive belt over the engine pulley

* If you don't have a parts list, go to the Sears website. They offer them there. It should show in one of the sketches how and where the belt needs to be routed.
Step 2
* Then go to a sears repair with your old belt and part number and buy a new one. Make sure you compare the belts to each other to make sure they are the same.
Step 3
* If you have a newer mower, there should be a decal on the mower deck showing how the belt is routed. I can't say exactly how to route the belt since I don't know what mower you have. Ours had the decal and there was a sketch in the manual.
Step 4
* Loosen the keepers at the drive pulley and pull the belt down and off.
Step 5
* You may have to disconnect a side of the mower deck.
Step 6
* Slide the belt back on as per routing instructions.
Step 7
* Put the belt keepers back exactly how they were before.
Step 8
* Watch out for idler wheels and make sure the belt is on the correct side.
