Mower deck F1145 deck belt

[streetlighter]

Hi

I need to fit a new deck belt to a F1145 60" deck

It has a driveshaft to the gearbox on the deck

can I slide the inner shaft out of the driveshaft to remove the deck from the tractor or will this cause problems with re-assembly ?

The problem I have is getting the belt round the gearbox pulley, I think I have to remove the gearbox to get the belt round this pulley

does anyone know an easy way to do this or is it just a matter of removing the blades and lifting the gearbox ?


thanks in advance

Paul

John Deere does not have Service Repair Shop Technical Manuals for free online, this is a good deal on ebay, a new manual will be close to $100 or more.

Thanks for the fast reply Mark I will try that

I have the workshop manual which shows how to total rebuild the gearbox but not how to remove it :frown:

Can anyone advise how to get the belt off/on ?

Thank you very much for that Mark :smile:

Mines a F1145 60" rear discharge but the layout looks the same so I will give that a try
