I have a 2016 MTD Yard Machine, I have looked on line and cannot find another one like mine to adjust the deck belt. All the videos I saw show different kinds of adjustments but none are like mine. The brackets where the cable goes through are not adjustable and I don't see any other kind of adjustment on it.

1st post. Welcome. Try model, serial number etc., and why you feel a need to adjust the belts. For example - if the old ones wore out, and you put new ones on, maybe they are the wrong length. Or maybe the pulley brakes are worn and changing the geometry to where belts no longer fit properly.
There are thousands of MTD models, being a 2016 does not help us very much at all (It's not like a car or truck).
Locate the product identification label and let us know the exact model and serial information on it.
Help us help you.
Thanks, and welcome to the forum.

Of all the MTD decks I seen none are adjustable when comes belt tension. All have used springs. And if is a manual PTO the spring is usually at the end of the cable. Once the belt is worn out it gets correct replacement.
Now I have one version of the 46" deck that an one inch shorter belt is required.
