I've been mowing with my '46 A and woods belly mower for over 10 years. Last year the belt finally threw in the towell so I bought another-Woods 4152. It went on with a fight-it took hours and seemed unreasonably tight. The old one was so stretched out that I could put it on and off with no troubled and always worked fine. Started the tractor and didn't make one loop the belt rolled! Wrestled with the thing again-belt rolled again. Please help! Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the belt on and adjusted. I've moved the mower around and adjusted the height of the pullies, etc. Thanks for any info. Tara

When a belt is,"rolled on" without loosening the idler pulley the cords in the belt (yes they are like tire cords) are usually stretched on one side or maybe both, and many times a cord is broken. When a cord is broken or stretched the belt will not track straight in the sheaves or as it commonly called, a pulley. When the cord is broken or stretched this makes one side of the belt slightly longer than the other and therefore it tends to roll. You will need to discard this belt and use a new one. You need to loosen the tension of the idler so that the belt goes on all pulleys then tighten the idler(s)to provide tension of the belt.

Once a belt rolls and is run any length of time it is near impossible too keep it from twisting again. This is just one persons experience.
