Thanks for taking the time to go through the process. I have to replace my drive belt that broke off today. The Hustler machinic said to inspect the fan blades for rubbing on the belt causing the belt to fail from wear.

Two solid videos. Thanks for sharing. I'm moving in 5 days and I have 3 acres to mow. Mower wouldn't start and I finally figured out there was water in the gas tank. Got that sorted, 5 minutes into the mow my hydro belt came off. This video was helpful. Cheers.

first video I've seen on the drive belt replacement for a hustler raptor. I had the same idea as you, that it would probably be allot more convenient to take the shroud around the gas tank off. thanks for the vid!

Unplug the wire at the electronic clutch before taking off the transaxle drive belt is all that is required. You do not need to take off anything else. I replaced both the deck belt and transaxle drive belt on my Hustler Raptor with 42" deck a few weeks ago. From start to finish, the replacement took around 15 minutes.

Thank you for the videos! I am not very mechanically inclined and it took me a while but with your help I was able to get back up and running and cut the yard before the rain came :) The deck tension spring was a real pain! I found another video where a guy replaced his deck belt without unhooking the tension spring and I ended up using that method for that part. Thanks again

A long flat bladed screwdriver with a notch cut in the middle of the blade works.

You did WAY more work than is required to replace that drive belt. Unplug the wire and dropping the blade belt is all that is required. Removing all that other stuff is a waste of time and energy. This really is just a 10 minute job.

Mine falls off too. Is there a video that shows how to replace the fan assembly?
@hellspite

So does mine I think either the spring has lost its tension or the plastic fan that is attached to the pulleys, some of the blades are bent and they hit the belt and throw it off the pulley. Now I have to find a vid on dropping the transmission to replace both the pulleys.

@@hellspite , thanks for mentioning about the fan. I was mowing today and my mower stopped. My husband changed the belt, but it popped off again. I started reading the comments to my husband, he checked the fan and one of the blades is bent. He's going to try to unbend it by getting it hot with a heating gun.

My Hustler dealer mentioned to me that there's a cross member bracket that can break and it will cause increased wear on the belt. I also noticed that there's two bolts on the bottom of the hydros. One of mine is missing, the other was loose. My hydros were wobbly, and I'm thinking that's what threw my drive belt (bc the belt runs through the fans on top of the hydros.) Got a new belt and new bolts. I'll let ya know how it works out!
