guys please help my cub cadet original mower deck has all new belts but when the tractor is running the blades keep on spinning when the mower is disengaged i tried one of the old short belts that goes on the 2 pullies but it didnt help i dont know what to do. please help, thanks

sounds like your tensioner on the deck is not moving far enough to take the tension off your belt. Mark

thanks mark how do i fix this:bigthink:

Theres a rod on the kick clutch that you can screw in or out. Put some lube on that center pulley where it moves back and fourth too.

ok thanks:beerchug:
