Disengage the idler arm lever ( it is a spring loaded arm located on your deck on left side). There is a bracket that holds it in place. Push arm forward over bracket then carefully allow arm to release all the way back. This will remove tension from belt. Then simply slide belt over pulleys keeping track of how they are aligned on pulleys. When installing new belt be sure belt is aligned in both front pulleys and be sure all belts are set in pulleys before reengaging idler arm lever.
how do you change drive belt on a ltx 1040 cub cadet
please let me see a diagram of this
what model and which belt? If it is a 1000 series you have a transmission drive belt and a deck belt. I you have a 2000 series or higher or a cub cadet with an IH logo then you only have one belt the deck belt and no drive belt you have a drive shaft. So the model of the tractor and what belt needs to be given before the correct answer can be given.Phil
The drive belt on a Cub Cadet LX1040 is adjusted by turning a small bolt on the side of the cutting deck. It loosens or tightens the belt depending on the direction it is turned.
You can replace the drive belt on cub cadet RZT 50 by first making sure that the engine of the vehicle is turned off. Then you can pop open the hood and remove the belt.
Dont know either
A-sect V belt 1/2 by 78 part # 954-0461
It's right on the deck
No the drive belt and Deck belt are two different belts, one powers the rear wheels, the other powers the deck. though if you are asking if they are the same belt as in same size, I don't know, you'll have to check your owners manual or talk to someone who repairs or can get parts for Cub Cadet mowers.
Which one? Blade = 754-04033 Transmission = 754-0461
