    Make or break features on a zero-turn?

    I want to be able to release the hydro bypass valves without climbing under the machine when it breaks down in the middle of the yard. I want to be able to reach under the machine to replace the hydro pump drive belt without jacking up the machine. LED headlights from the factory. All mowers...

    Cheetah II Hydro Pump Drive Belt Failure

    Here’s the pictures they attached to my invoice. It does look like a rusty pulley and some corrosion on the aluminum. They say in their comments to scrape the deck after every mow. Does anybody really scrape their deck underneath after every time they mow? I would think a high-end lawnmower...

    Cheetah II Hydro Pump Drive Belt Failure

    They attached some black and white pictures of the pulleys showing corrosion and said it was acting like sandpaper on the belt. They replaced all the drive pulleys and a new belt. I probably should of asked to see the old pulleys but I didn't.

    Cheetah II Hydro Pump Drive Belt Failure

    Thank You Homer. I called SCAG tech support a couple years ago when the second belt broke and he told me it may be a piece of twig or stone stuck in the pulley, but without seeing it he didn't know for sure. It seems I'm at the fate of the dealer and since I didn't buy it from them I'm sure...

    Cheetah II Hydro Pump Drive Belt Failure

    What's sad is I sold my 10 year old Kubota ZD326S for no reason other than I wanted a new mower and I wanted the SCAG Cheetah. The Kubota never broke down on me and ran like a tank.

    Cheetah II Hydro Pump Drive Belt Failure

    I just got a call from the dealer and SCAG will not cover the repair. I'm not surprised. I still don't believe that rust was the reason for the repeated belt failures, but hopefully a new set of pulleys will correct the problem.

    Cheetah II Hydro Pump Drive Belt Failure

    Thank You everyone for your input. The dealer called me Friday and has not heard from SCAG yet. I'm in Northeast Ohio so no saltwater here. I have not checked the humidity on the container but I will do that. The problem is with the motion drive pulleys. The container has factory vents, but...

    Cheetah II Hydro Pump Drive Belt Failure

    Hello Everyone. I purchased a new Cheetah II 72" with the Kaw EFI back in June of 2021 for residential use. I mow about 5 acres. In 2022, I had my first drive belt failure at about 30 hours. I put a new belt on and it lasted about 10 hours and failed again. I took it to the dealer for...
