Additional Information

This ground drive belt (part number 230-0646) transfers power from the engine to the transmission in your lawn tractor, enabling forward and reverse movement. If your tractor has trouble moving or stalls when shifting gears, a worn or broken ground drive belt may be the cause.

Symptoms of a failing ground drive belt include jerky motion, loss of drive power, or difficulty climbing slopes. Inspect the belt for cracks, fraying, or slack tension. Replace immediately if signs of damage are present to avoid further strain on the drive system.

Before starting, park the tractor on a flat surface, turn off the engine, and disconnect the spark plug wire. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Remove the mower deck if needed, release belt tension, and remove the old belt from the pulleys. Route the new belt following the correct diagram for your model and ensure proper alignment and tension before reconnecting the spark plug wire.
