The transmission poly-v belt is tensioned by the
spring on the end of the wheel drive control cable.
Engaging the wheel drive control extends the spring
applying tension to the belt, causing the drive to
propel the mower. When engaged the spring should
extend between ½” & ¾”. If extension falls out of
this range adjustment is required. Refer to Section
“WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ADJUSTMENT” for the
procedure.
