Questions & Answers
does having a-heavy duty cutting assembly if that is the correct description-offered when mower was purchased-have any bearing on what type of cutting belt is required wondering if is a different belt required?
Needs wheels on the mower deck. I had the same issue with belts breaking. Wheels fixed the belt issues and are easy to instal. It’s a crap mower, apparently wheels used to be standard on older mowers.

to fix belts breaking get the pulleys aligned properly-dealer refused to entertain the idea that the pulleys were out of alignment- took to a private mechanic-ex dealer employee-one look at it- 1 hr ...
Read more$60-cuts like it should-another tip ask dealer for a generic brand when they are out of belts-$18 versus $65- 10 hrs out of the belt so far
Hi. I have just turned over 38 hours with my new TS342 and in general I am happy with it. But, I have broken two mower belts in that time. Its gotta be the way I am using it. Has anyone had the same problem? Is there a heavy duty replacement belt I can purchase?
I set up the tensions as indicated and I engage the blades at about half throttle as I was instructed. Is this right? I was cutting deep into my cough lawn so did this cause the belt to slip and disintegrate? My neighbour next door tells me his mower would stall before the belt breaking. Is the engine too powerful for the belt?
