2. Lifted front end of mower with mower jack.
3. Used impact wrench to loosen blade clutch bolt.
4. Unplugged clutch and lowered clutch after removing clutch bolt. Collect washers separating clutch from drive pulley.
5. Used screwdriver to slide down drive pulley and remove belt.
6. Used impact wrench to remove nut holding fan base and transmission drive pulley. (Note: to keep pulley from spinning I cut the old belt and fed one end around the pulley until it started wrapping under itself which bound up the pulley).
7. Route the new belt from front to back, lift transmission pulley and wrap new belt around it pushing it back into place so metal ears keep it from slipping off.
8. Route belt around idler pulleys, work belt onto Drive pulley and push it up into housing like I did on the rear pulley. Pull the spring loaded idler pulley to position the belt that is now under tension.
9. Replace the washers separating the pulley and clutch and slide on clutch with key way in slot. Hold in place while replacing the bolt. Tighten the bolt with impact wrench.
10. Reconnect clutch power cable.
11. Install fan, replace nut and tighten nut with impact wrench.
12. Reinstall battery box, battery and mower deck.
13. Double check to make sure you or I forgot anything.
