deck belts breaking

its all apart pulleys off bearings seem ok. question now did belt score the pully as it was shredding or did the rough pully tear up the belt. if the latter why is the pully damaged. gonna run the pully with high speed drill to see if bearings act up. picks on the way
 
that pulley is screwed!......get rid of it.....replace it!....looks like the idler?......number 28 on the parts diagram?
 
its plastic, and yes 28. so the question remains, did the belts tear up the pully on its way out X 3 or is the worn pully ruining the belts?either way i will replace the pully
 
i'd definitely blame the pulley....it should quiet it down as well......its interesting....mines the same thing....but they used a steel pulley....if they give you that option...take the steel one:thumbsup:
 
ok decided to sharpen blades. first one off . second one = broken spindle shaft, twisted right off( with some persuasion), so found one used for free, waaay too easy, get it home and the shaft is1/4 inch shorter than original. A new one is looking better and better!!!
