1. Attach and route the upper drive belt around the spindle pulley and idler pulley found on the undercarriage, the
electric PTO clutch and the PTO idler pulley as illustrated in Figure 29. Make sure that the belt is routed to the
INSIDE of the belt keeper on the undercarriage idler pulley and the remaining keeper pins found around the
spindle pulley.
IMPORTANT: Make certain that the flat side of the belt is facing outward as it sits against both the electric PTO
clutch and spindle pulley. This allows the “V” side of the belt to ride snugly in both pulleys.
