Drive Belt for LT1046

[burgawman]

Has anyone replaced the drive belt on a series 1000 tractor, if so how? Thanks in advance for your help.

I have the LT1050. Have not replaced the belt but it does not seem that difficult. I have removed the deck from underneath a few times to sharpen the blades and it does not seem that it would be hard to throw another belt on. The owner's manual does show how to remove the deck from underneath.

As cardenharry notes, the mower deck drive belt is not difficult to replace.
But, the Kevlar transmission drive belt is a bit more diificult CC (MTD) has a service manual on their website for the 1000 series tractors.that couid help a DIY type... or perhaps a belt changeout by your local dealer might be the best.
