Please assist me to correctly identify this mower - I think its a 660 thru 679 transmatic lawn tractor.
I am in South Africa. The local MTD agents can only provide me with the MTD .com website address - no help whatsoever. I cannot dial the 1800 number on the MTD website.
I need to know the belt sizes so I can try to get some locally here in SA
I need a picture of the deck and how it attaches to the mower.
Is anyone able to assist?

Hi ken can you give us a model number?

Those pics sure look like a Murray tractor, not MTD?

It is a mtd with a high low transaxle.
The rear wheel are held on with a bolt a Murray would have a C clip
And the steering rod is on the right side hooked to the top Murray would have two rods or one hooked to the bottom left.

Give this a try and see if it is close enough to find what you need http://www.mtdparts.com/equipment/ARIPartFinderView?storeId=10101&catalogId=19502&langId=-1#

Number 13an601h29

I've attached the ID tag - its definately an MTD machine

I've tried the serial number - no records are found - thanks all the same.

I think the closest is is 660 thru 679 transmatic lawn machine - I've been sent the parts manual - although I'm still no closer to determining the belt lengths (I know the drive belt from the engine is wrong - she is only going into gears 1 to 4 - 5 and 6 are the same as 4 - I'm driving her without the gear cover plate and can see whats happening with the pulleys and adjusters)

The double gear pulley is loose - and the front belt is a SA fan belt (thats how I got her)

You need to replace both belts. Of you only replace one then you will not have every speed

Use model number 13aq665g013, the last 4 digits only tell who sold the tractor. Belt part numbers are mtd 954-0280 and 954-0370, both very common and easily obtained belts, if you cannot get them let me know. Do not use regular belts, they will not work, the shape and angles are very different.

Here is a pic of the deck hangers....
