We ordered the belt from Sears authorized parts and after chatting with the on line rep.
The site and the rep said the mower drive belt and the rear wheel drive belt are the same on most of this series mower.
I replaced the belt with the recommended belt. The mower used to be slow and steady going forward and no reverse. Now it is slow and jerky going forward.
I suspect the rear wheel drive belt, motion drive belt is different on this model than the blade drive belt, but I can not figure out what that belt may be. I laid the two belts on top of each other, the old and the new and they seemed to match in size, which did not make sense, since the drive belt should be stretched causing this problem.
Can someone point my inexperienced self in a direction that I can get this mower going to mow once more before the snow hits?
Thank you.
