I've had my 317 for several years and never run into this before. So I'm not sure how things go. I had my snow blower hooked up and yesterday was the first day I had to use it. It was blowing just fine and all at once it stopped working. After pulling the grill, I seen that the tension pulley had lost tension and the belt came off. I had to replace the spring earlier when I hooked up the blower, because other one looked bad. Anyway, the part that the spring hooks too, to cause the tension seemed to be flopped over in the wrong direction. I was able to move it over to the far side and get tension again and finish the job. What I would like to have is a diagram of that area of the pulley's, as I don't have any kind of manual for this Tractor. It seems that it should have something to hold the tensioner in that position, but I found nothing. I have 500 ft of drive and really need this thing to work right. Thanks
