I picked up a FREE Toro LX-426 with a model number of 13AL60RG044 and serial number of 1B058H20638 Date of Manufacture says 2/2008.
The 2 belts for the transmission were cracked and very loose so I was able to get new belts for it, but after installing them the drive belt it is VERY loose and barely will go forward, however reverse goes fast and no issues. At first i thought it may be the transmission however once looking at the belt it clearly is not getting any tension. As a side note Don't think it matters but the the engine isn't the original one as this is only a 14.5HP but I don't think that is the issue. Does anyone have any idea how to tighten the belt. As a matter of fact the parts manual calls for a 91"belt and the one I have on is 90" and it is still way too loose.
