    John Deere burning deck belt up.

    Hi all. My John Deere E130 is burning the deck belt up. I took the deck off and all 4 pulleys are smooth rolling without any noise. When I'm mowing, I can go about 15 to 20 minutes, then the belt starts to smoke and it sounds like a pulley is making a noise. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Going through belts

    I attached a link of my mower deck belt, does this seem too loose? Any suggestions? This is my 3rd belt and I think it’s rubbing somewhere causing them to snap.
