Bring the belt back across the center sheave in the
center groove over to the right outside sheave.
Figure 7.
Then thread it back across the front of the center
sheave in the top groove.
Figure 8.
Proper Twist: The belt then follows with a 3/4 twist
back under the left V-idler, up over the drive sheave
and back down under the right idler pulley. This will
leave a 1/4 twist in the section of belt extending from
the right V-idler to lower groove of the center mower
sheave.
Adjust the mower to proper cutting height. The front of
the mower should be slightly lower than the rear of the
best cutting and least power requirement.
Idler Adjustment: Make minor belt adjustment with
idlers but keep left idler about 1" above being in line
with the groove in which the belt runs on the center
sheave of the mower and right idler about 1" below.
Move mower fore and aft for major adjustments. On
L306K210, K260, S, and F10, use belt takeup idlers on
mower deck for major adjustment.
LEAF MULCHER (OPTIONAL)

2. On mowers with bent-down front frame, remove
