Hello,
Lawn Tractor: Craftsman YS4500
Model: 917.276680
I'm trying to figure out why my lawn tractor will not self-propel. Background on what led to the issue- I was mowing down some tall grasses and suddenly my lawn tractor would not self-propel. I thought the drive belt had become worn and was slipping, so I ordered a new one. I replaced the drive belt on my tractor with the recommended part number (140218), but as you can see in the posted video, it is very loose and will not propel my tractor as it should. Although it is the correct part number, perhaps this belt should not be advertised as fitting my tractor?
Do you see anything in the video I am missing that could be the problem? Thank you for your time.
