So, I inherited a much older Cub Cadet Z-Force. Mechanically, it’s in fantastic shape. It just needed some new wheels and a deck belt.
Model: 53AA5B6L712

I was able to find the correct deck belt and the diagram sticker is only partial on the mower and of no use. I know this is a much older Cadet and searching online has only made me more confused.

Can anyone help me figure out the routing for the deck belt?

Looking at the parts manual hasn’t been much help because there is a pulley that doesn’t look as if it matches up. Any help someone can provide would be a life saver.
