I have a TB30 R, Troybuilt, that screeches like a big mad cat when going up hill. I thought that it was something to do with a belt, but what belt, what am I looking for? The blade isn't engaged and I'm just tooling along and the unexpected, or even expected screech prompts some PTSD moments, what is that? The next thing is maybe I'm just too big for the thing. Obviously, I'm not a mechanic, but I will buy parts and give fixing it a shot. Any Ideas?

It's the drive belt. I always change both belts at the same time.

Agreed. That drive belt will have a glaze on it from slipping some.
