Mower deck Replacing engine to deck belt on HONDA HF 2417

[moinsundemi]

Hello,

My kids left behind them a rake in the garden and boooooom ! it destroyed the belt.

My current problem is that I do not understand the procedure to replace it.

Would anyone have a how-to or the service manual ?

Thanks to any helper.

Which belt is it?
The engine to deck belt or the internal deck drive belt?

It is the engine to deck belt.

As it is a recent purchase, I don't know it very well.
At least I was able to find today a customer service manual, but in German, which I understand quite well.
I succeeded in replacing the belt this evening following the manual. I also found that the previous owner did not mount the deck straight (the left forearm was not in the same hole as the right one) and I think that did not help.

By the way, the mower deck is now running much more evenly than before.

So I would say my immediate problem is solved.

But I still would appreciate very much an English (or French, let's dream) issue of the customer service manual, because I'm still better in English as in German.

Mos are about $ 40 a small investemnt for a mower that will last a lifetime because it is so well designed and made.
