Do you have a diagram or can you tell me how to install a mower deck drive belt on an old 16.5 Huskee lawn tractor. I do not see a traditonal idler pulley.

Answer -
 Hello Glenn:

 Is this A 2 or 3 blade Deck? Where is the Blade Engagment Lever? Do you have the Model # of the Mower?

 Respectfully

 John

This is a 2 blade moweer deck. I do not have a model number except it is a 16.5 hp Huskee quick cut. The blade engagement lever is on the right hand side and has a park position and cutting height adjustment on the lever.
thanks

Answer
 Hello Glen:

 When the Deck is taken out of the Park setting. The Deck should move backwards to tighten the Blade Belt. Simply route the Belt in a Circle from each Blade Quill and around the Engine Pully. Hope this Helps.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully
