Wrong item
Although the correct drive belt was listed on the invoice, you sent me the wrong one. Fortunately a local engine repair shop had the belt I needed.

First thing you need to do is remove the battery. Than remove mower deck. Not hard to do. Only belt that needs to be removed at this time is the deck belt off the pulley. Leave the rest of that belt in place. Pull deck away from mower so you can get underneath the mower. Now take the battery carrier out so you can see the transaxle pulley. 2 bolts you can see that you can loosen so it will make it easy to remove drive belt from pulley. The 2 bolts are belt guides. Now get underneath your mower and slowly pull the belt out. At this time you can remove the idler pulley if you wish. Belt is out, put new one in and new idler pulley.

Raised Tractor 3 feet above ground to work on it.
Removed old belt making sure to notice it's path so I could install the new one.
I took pictures to help with my memory!
Reinstalled new drive belt and plastic pulley (which was broken) but had to loosen rear pulley guides on all pulleys.
Had to unbolt and lift up Steering wheel shaft in order to install new belt properly.
Had to unhook link clip near rear pulley to get new belt on properly.
Tightened everything back in place and no more problems.
