Alko drive belt fitting? - Cub Cadet Street Sign- tractor lawn riding mower parts

They are pretty basic, especially if the replacement engine is complete with carburator and exhaust. There should be 4 bolts that hold the engine to the mower, the electrical connectors for the ignition and starter, the throttle cable, & the belt pulley on the crank shaft. If you take good notes and pictures of the old engine before you remove it, just make sure the new engine goes back on the same.

This means you need to purchase a new belt for the Cutting Deck once replaced everything should work okay. Cheers, Malcolm.

Check to see if the belt is loose. If so check that the automatic adjuster is not jammed up with grass clippings. The belt may be worn out, especially if it has been slipping for a long while. Note the way it is fitted before you remove it!! Take a photo of it.

what kind of engine brigg and stratton or tecuseh what horse power

Possible solution
Belt wore out and stretched
There should be an adjuster to tighten the belt
Could spray with belt dressing but not a permanent fix. Have to spray every so often.

I'm sorry but I believe you have this posted in the wrong product category? Please re-post the question in the proper category if this is the case, otherwise you have my apologies. This is the car and truck problem category

Hi, your problem is simple and is all to do with the brake you adjusted. Remove the two bolts, one either side of the brake adjuster, remove the brake assembly, remove clean and lubricate the two pins and the holes they slide in. Reassemble the brake assembly and adjust the centre nut so that the brake comes on and off. This should be about a quarter inch of travel on the short brake lever. Regards Phil.

Remove deck for more space. Remove guard or cover. Replace belt.

You will need to take off he main pulley. I did this by knocking in a wood wedge between the drive pulley and the deck and clamping on some molegrips so the pulley did not go round when undoing the nut at the bottom other wise the motor turns, Undo the nut anticlockwise as usual. The pulley assembly then drops down so you can remove the drive belt

I had the same problem with my Alko going slow in forward and reverse. Believe it or not the problem is caused by a build up of grass cuttings around the hydro clutch mechanism. If you follow the mechanism from the foot pedal you will probably find the actuator is being prevented from engaging by a build up of old grass. Clean it out and you should find it restores normal operation. This has happened to me a few times so now I blow out the grass on a regular basis with an air compressor which stops me having any problems. It also stops a hefty bill from the service dealer :-)
