To all my American friends; I hope you have a safe and happy 4th of July! Thank you to those that served and sacrificed fighting for the freedoms we all enjoy today! God Bless the U.S.A. 🇺🇸
Just want to say thank you for highlighting this simple fix. After my dad died last year, I’ve had to try to fill his “fix anything” shoes. Your video helped me get my mom’s lawn tractor going again. She was thrilled and relieved. Thanks again for your video

This was the exact problem I had. After seeing your video I now know why they tell you to always park mower with brake on. It takes tension off the drive belt so it will not stretch as much. I also found that after cleaning grass and dirt from underneath the bar hanging down on the brake I had a small amount of free play on the pedal when it is not engaged. So if you you find no free play then you probably have this problem. I had already taken the pins out of the hanging bars on both sides of the deck and the rod on the front of the deck before I found this video. I then slid the deck towards the side with the discharge chute and did not have to remove deck belt tensioner cable to get enough room to clean out the brake area. Great video, thank you so much...
DUDE!! 3 years after you made this video Thanks a lot!! I just came in from the test drive and this fixed my problem, my mower suddenly wouldn't go up hills, I thought for sure it was the trans going out and after watching several videos on how to change the fluid I stumbled across your video. No way it's that easy, I never get lucky with this stuff but sure enough even though I blow the grass and dirt off of every time I use it junk was caked on up in that area causing the pedal to not release all of the way. THANKS!!!
Changed the drive belt. Less slippage but by the end of mowing, it was barely making it up hills. Found this video and thought it wasn’t likely to work because I pressure wash after each mow. Found lots of hard clumps in there but not right under the brake stop. But sure enough, it worked!! The mower pulls uphills it never has before! Thanks for taking the time to make this video. You saved me a couple $k.
This is probably what's wrong with our mower! I'm reading this at 1 in the morning so I can't go look at it now, but excited for when the sun comes up! Thank you so very much! 😀
Because of this problem I got a really good deal on the mower that I have now. I had to replace a idler pully on it and a few other things, but works great now.
THANK YOU KB!!! I came back here just to say Thanks! I couldn't figure out what was wrong with my rider. This was the fix and the only video on the internet that I found with this information. I've like and subscribed!
All I can say is thank you. This just saved me a lot of hassle. Been putting up with the slow drive and slipping for 2 seasons. This fixed my issue. I do regularly clean the deck off but was unaware of that small space collecting all that grass and dirt. So happy.
You saved me a lot of time! I noticed the brake pedal not coming all the way back . Of course the mower slow down and the belt was slipping. I blew out the gunk and actually had to scrape the pivot plate of the tension pulley to free it up. Thank you very much!
I hose off the mower deck after every use, and this last time the tranny had next to no get up and go after going strong for hours. Found this video the next day and hosed off that area, which I've never done or thought of doing - can't really see it with the mower deck on. Sure enough, tranny is back to full strength. Quick and easy fix for seemingly big problem. Thank you so much for the video!
Thanks for the hint! I never use my brake and no one else uses this mower. But somehow mysteriously the brake was locked on. Very happy to discover the simple fix!
Thanks so much for posting this. While my new belt was on order, I saw this and went out to clear out nearly a bale of grass out of that area. A screwdriver and air gun got it all cleaned out, and she gained nearly all power back. It would hardly climb an incline in the middle of the yard it was so bad. I assumed the belt had stretched. I may still swap it, when the belt comes in. But for now, it will go on a hook for when the first truly fails. Thanks again!
Last year we got a new Craftsman T260 50" cut and 2 weeks ago a used LT2000 and I am learning that these lawn tractors can be a pain in the a** to keep running and driving properly..I just replaced the 2 spindles and blades on the LT2000 and need to look at the transmission drive belt(s) and actually the T260..I always blow them out with the air compressor and change oil and air filter when needed but haven't looked at the drive belts...its videos like these that have helped me realize theres more to maintain if I want to keep from having to buy new equipment all the time..especially at todays prices.
Thanks for posting this video. I was fixing to order a smaller belt. I looked underneath saw the grass build-up and knew this was my problem. Cleaned the build-up and cut my grass and back to normal. You saved me some money and a whole lot of time! Thanks again!
My 11 year old Craftsman YT4200 was starting to struggle up moderate inclines. Found your video and cleared out the deck under the drive belt, and now it pulls like new. Thanks!
Removing the deck so that you can replace the drive belt is a real pain, I did it last year and was bummed because I thought it needed a new belt. Your video save me lots of time and frustration, I just cleaned the area that you specified and I was ready to go. Thanks!!!
You have joined "Scotty" of Star Trek (TOS) fame as a "miracle worker" in my humble opinion. Saw this video and wondered if it might restore my YT4000 from being dead in space to warp drive capable. Applied your fix. Presto! She's back to plying the vast reaches of my assigned space sector, cutting down unruly upstarts that would otherwise impede the flourishment of civilization. In all seriousness, Thank You for this amazingly spot on video.
Thanks! Your video in my quick search was the only no-nonsense one that was spot on. The slipping only happens to me when I am deep in the fall leaves and now I know why after years of dealing with this!
You got to be kidding me I have been trying to figure out why my tractor would not move. Belts off new belt on still nothing getting ready to dump this old tractor I got for almost nothing. Then I saw this went under and fixed lol thanks!!!!!!!!
Thanks a lot man. I’m about to take the deck out from under a yt 3000 Craftsman tractor and put a new spindle in and new belt. I will definitely check for buildup around the drive belt while deck is pulled. Thanks again.
Yup I’ve seen this happen a few times mostly on Craftsman riders and figured it out on my own same way you did. People like to mow over all kinds of junk and get crap packed up tight in there and the brake can’t completely release. I’ve actually had people argue with me because they didn’t believe the packed debris was the issue.
Thanks, my case was a little different but same diagnostics. Belt came off two pulleys and one carrier. Back on and working well. Belt two years old and fine.
simply amazing :!! just saved my neighbor from buying a new mower by just removing a hard clump of grass from underneath the break pedal .. i had tried earlier today and had given up till i saw this video .. i was not about to remove the trans ,,
Keeping the pulley system clean after every cut will really improve the drive belt life, also make sure the hydro gear drive belt is free of debris. 🚜👍
Thank you for all the info provided on this video. I have been having issues with my 42" T 210 model going on reverse; its the same situation I suppose. grass build up is a key factor in causing all these issues. I now know, thanks again.
Thank you so much. Had the same problem at the end of summer last year And just now cleaned everything out really good. That’s exactly what the problem was. Runs great again.
Thank you KB!!! Great video and like someone else posted, I didn't see any other videos addressing this issue. I found the debris build up on my own. But did want to put my mower back together till I was sure that would fix the problem. Your video put mind mind at ease. I put the mower back together and it drives like brand new. Thanks again.
Good Tip buddy. I am waiting on my Handy Lift table. I got the same one as you ordered 4 weeks ago and still on backorder. I am planning on using a chain hoist instead of the deck lift attachment.
Awesome dude. Bummer you have had to wait, but I'm sure you will love it! You will have to let me know what you think. Certainly saves your body for sure!
Thanks for the video I will give this a try next time I'm off work. Thanks to mtd for not putting a cover over that hole to keep so much grass out of there. I regularly spray the bladed and on top of the deck but wasn't aware that I would need to take the deck completely off just to maintain it.
Good video KB...I have run into this too...in lawns which are sparse, the debris gets packed in around the pulleys like cement. I'am surprised at the number of bearings, and belts that can survive the intense heat build up of these situations. Take care.
old video but still works....i will caution ya though. talked with an older than me lawntractor mech.....he says yeah if the brake is obstructed,,,,but a little looseness in the drive belt is cause the pulleys are made of a plastic fiberous material...i.e. wear faster with the tighter drive line
Great info! I knew not to mow in wet grass and hose it down every once in awhile as it builds up like that, but Ive never seen it interfere with regular operation of the machine.
Yeah, I typically like to blow them off with either a blower, or compressed air vs. water as places like this will just get more compacted if you don't hit it just right with the water. Air seems to get more out without direct placement. A little maintenance can go a long way.
Wish I'd seen this before I spent 2 days replacing the drive belt and cleaning all of the junk out from under / in my tractor. ;) My old belt was a few years old... and it had stretched a bit... so it probably needed to be replaced... but it might have made it another season if I had just cleaned out all the accumulated crap from underneath the mower first. I'll remember this for the next time my drive belt starts slipping again.
I’m on my third belt same mower 88 inch 89 inch and 90 drive belts 88 way to tight had 90 but was slipping going up hills so trying 89 inch! Need to check brakes area! Maybe that was problem all the time! 😊 happy summer mowing season 🤞👍
I've got the same problem with my John Deere L118 42 inch mower. Most of my problem was lubricating the idler pully support so it tightens up a little more. It seemed to help for now but if it gets slow again I'm going to get a 88 inch belt. I've never had this problem years ago.
Picked up the same mower for free wouldnt move. I noticed if i pulled the brake pedal towards me it would move fine. Cleaned all the shit out and now it works perfect
I have a similar model, and they are bad about that. It's like the break /clutch linkage packs the grass in there. I got the mower cheap because of this. Other than that their pretty good mowers.
Really Hoping this is my issue. Have a craftsman g5500 with a hydro gear trans. Mower doesn’t pull well. Already changed the trans filter and fluid and the issue is still there. Will look at for this soon and go from there. Figure it’s either grass compacted like you show, bad drive belt, or worst case it needs a complete new trans. Fingers crossed!!!
I tried spraying some belt dressing on mine. Wished I hadn't. Now it really slips. I just think it's too loose hopefully from a blockade you described.
My dad rip always was replacing those darn belts, an old Yardman. I bought a new craftsman t225, 2nd or 3rd season now, drive belt came to a blue smoky stop. Ya, I hate belts.
It's also probably good to inspect the drive belt tensioner spring to see if it's stretched. I replaced my spring recently as the old spring had stretched and was 25% longer then new spring.
I like your video. However, I would like to see where all the springs go. The heavy spring broke on my mtd huskee. It doesn't show where the springs hook on to.
I've seen a lot of videos where this is the problem, but none where it's something else. My drive belt keeps slipping, even after replacing it. It actually seems pretty tight. I'm at a loss as to what to do.
Great video. However, I need to know how to change the drive belt on a 2004 murray 42" cut including removing the mower deck. If you could do this it would be fantastic. Thank you Sean
I’m about to push my T210 off a cliff,…. Drive belt was loose so I removed it to find that the lil poly flat pulley was basically sawed/melted in half! Took it all apart and replaced both the belt and pulley and now I can’t get it back together right 😑😑 I came across your video in my search of the same belt pattern
I have an older Craftsman from about 1998 19.5hp and something is slipping when I get into taller, thicker grass. I suspect my mower-drive belt- thinking about trying a slightly smaller size as there are no adjustments. I do clean it off with leaf blower after each use. Thoughts ?
To all my American friends; I hope you have a safe and happy 4th of July! Thank you to those that served and sacrificed fighting for the freedoms we all enjoy today! God Bless the U.S.A. 🇺🇸

Just found this same issue on my mower, was driving me crazy till I saw your video thanks a million.
My machine just started loosing power and I came straight to U Tube, found your video and I am extremely happy! Thank you
Thanks, you saved a lot of people a lot of time and money. You will get payed back for this video. And i mean in a good way.
This is probably what's wrong with our mower! I'm reading this at 1 in the morning so I can't go look at it now, but excited for when the sun comes up! Thank you so very much! 😀
I just found this video. I too thought I was keeping it fairly clean. I will check this out and see how it goes! Thank You!
Thank you! I’m glad I found your video I just needed to see how the belt was routed. Glad I did before I went and wasted money on a new belt!
Because of this problem I got a really good deal on the mower that I have now. I had to replace a idler pully on it and a few other things, but works great now.

Excellent! So glad it helped you out! Just blow it out every so often and it will keep it from building up.

awesome brother... thank you.
My dad rip always was replacing those darn belts, an old Yardman. I bought a new craftsman t225, 2nd or 3rd season now, drive belt came to a blue smoky stop. Ya, I hate belts.
It's also probably good to inspect the drive belt tensioner spring to see if it's stretched. I replaced my spring recently as the old spring had stretched and was 25% longer then new spring.
I'll try this,because my Murray riding mower is bogging down on the first 2 and some times in third gear,and comes down to a stop
Right on saved me from changing belt
That worked, Thanks
I like your video. However, I would like to see where all the springs go. The heavy spring broke on my mtd huskee. It doesn't show where the springs hook on to.
Thank you for sharing
Never thought of thankyou much,!!!!!!
Thanks bud for great info wow
Im gonna check my sons mower tomorrow now lol
I've seen a lot of videos where this is the problem, but none where it's something else. My drive belt keeps slipping, even after replacing it. It actually seems pretty tight. I'm at a loss as to what to do.
I sure would like to see how you tighten the belt

Looks like needs clean with all the grass under yep/ customers need clean mowers wow unbelievable 😳/ looks like 👍u doing good 👍👏😀
I’m about to push my T210 off a cliff,…. Drive belt was loose so I removed it to find that the lil poly flat pulley was basically sawed/melted in half! Took it all apart and replaced both the belt and pulley and now I can’t get it back together right 😑😑 I came across your video in my search of the same belt pattern
Pause the video where it shows the belt diagram on the underside of the mower
I need this advice on a cub cadet zero turn. Trans belt is slipping. Can’t go up hills or fast
thanks. Ill check mine now, its also slow
I have an older Craftsman from about 1998 19.5hp and something is slipping when I get into taller, thicker grass. I suspect my mower-drive belt- thinking about trying a slightly smaller size as there are no adjustments. I do clean it off with leaf blower after each use. Thoughts ?
KB why does a new drive belt stretch on a lgt 2654 Husqvarna mower.All pulleys are new.
Can you make a video or send me pictures of how the brake rod in the bottom is set up and where the spring goes ?
