Has anyone else had issues with their deck belt jumping off when being engaged? I have a Big Dog Black Jack 48" mower with less than 125 hours on my mower and have gone through 4 belts. Been back to the dealer twice with no solution to the problem other than a new belt. I did find that the belt guide for the center pulleys was missing on my 48" deck from the manufacture. Dealer supplied and I have installed but still have the same issues. Also noticed that the spring loaded idler has a little wobble in it from the factory and I have wondered if when the belt is engaged that the little bit of wobble allows the belt to jump off. It is a 40 minute process to remove the spring loaded idler, and other pulleys to removed the belt that is pinched under the pulleys and then to reassemble everything. Great mower but this deck belt issue SUCKS!!
Mine also had two missing bolts, found two extra nuts and one frame bolt was loose.
Any help would be recommended.
