Hey guys....
Long time viewer first time caller.. I have a Craftsman riding mower and I am having some trouble that recently started.
My mower is the 42in deck. I have cleaned the entire under side of the deck and replaced the blades. But it seems to leave a 1-2 inch row of grass when cutting. The row appears as if the blades meet in the middle and they can not cut this small section. Its right down the center. It does appear to be cut a little off the top. Not sure what is going on.
The history - I did have to replace the spindle last fall cause my nephew hit a small stump and the star at the bottom of the spindle was completely rounded off. After replacing that I do not remember any issues.
My buddy suggested my belt may be slipping. But unfortunately I have to order a belt from sears.com or try a local mower shop. Sears stores or tractor supply do not carry the belt for my 2003 model.
Thanks
Corey
