451 blower belt slipage
Posted: Thu Feb 07, 2019 8:39 pm
As the title says im having trouble with my belt slipping. its slipping from getting snow blown on the pulley from the chute where it meets the blower housing. i used to have the cover for it but that fell/broke off and well......it's seen better days .
but even with the shield/ cover on i could still slip the belt due to snow getting on the pulley which gets blown around when moving light snow which makes me wonder if i have the correct belt, parts tree is saying this part number and dimension of the belt 954-0340 5/8 X 84 is this correct for a super?
i did buy some new chute clamps to try get it to seal better waiting for a warm day to do that, currently -12 at the moment
and i am going to have to make a new shield to keep that pesky snow off of the belt.
seems pretty straight forward but figured i would check before i start messing with stuff
thanks, joe
