Replace The Deck Belt on This Craftsman T110 42' Riding Lawnmower

In this video I explain step by step how to replace the deck belt on this craftsman by MTD 42" mower. It's very straightforward and is a job you can do to save some money!

If you happen to have the same model, my model is 13AN77XS093 (2018) model. The belt part number is 954-04060C

You can get this from Amazon:

are good places too.

Buddy, my belt slipped off and I used this video to put it back on straight. I can’t thank you enough, people like you help guys like me who may not be as mechanically inclined as others. Thanks again man.

Excellent tutorial, everything I needed to know to easily reseat my mower belt. No scraped knuckles, no cursing. I have a T-120, the spindle guard bolts are a size smaller (5/16)—everything else in this T110 video is dead-on for the 120. Thanks so much!

Watched the video several times and decided to bite the bullet and try myself for the first time. I have a Craftsman T100 36" and all worked out well. T100 only has one idler to loosen, which by the way, was a bear to undo. Who can beat the YouTube University? I did the job in 90 degree Florida sun so it's time for me to "take a bath". Thank you.

Thank you very much for this video. I’ve never changed the belt on my 42” mower before but this video made it go a lot faster. Took about an hour. Again, many thanks.

Thanks for posting! The camera angles helped me solve my issues!

I appreciate you posting this video. I just replaced my deck belt after watching this.

Video was great and things went good. Only issue I’m having is idling now. The belt is slapping pretty hard when I start the mower up. Everything is tight as can be. Any thoughts?

Thanks, Rudy. Bought a new tractor last year, the deck belt broke a few days back. Didn't know how to fix so talked with a Neighbour to borrow is the trailer so I can take to the mechanics. Decided to research how to fix it and came across your video. Watched, and followed and was amazed to see I was able to put a new belt w/o any issue. Thanks for the details and step-by-step instructions. You did a great job. I saved time and money because of you. much appreciated!

Maybe you can help me. I have a 2019 craftsman t110 with a 42” deck. I’ve had 3 blade engagement cables break on me over a two week span. I also noticed that every time it’d break, the deck brake rod was out of its hole as well. I just replaced the deck brake rod and and it still slips out of its hole. I thought maybe it was because both my pulley guards had broken off so I replaced them both. The rod still keeps popping out and now if I drop my deck to the #3 setting, it loses a lot of power and won’t cut. The engagement cable hasn’t broken again so that’s good. Do you know what’s going on with my mower?

Would love to see if you have a video on removing deck from craftsman T110 lawn tractor enjoyed watching your last video replacing a belt.

[markm]

Can you please show how to adjust the deck height? I know of the nut and lock nut on the front but can't find any other adjustments

[paulbattles]

This should be the same for a T1000 or atleast very close right ? I’m going to try when I get some time

Nice video, just 1 item, I just pushed on the engine pulley guard, and it came out of the hole, and moved to the rear, and belt came off. No tools are required for that part. New belt on main engine and pulled on the guard, and it back popped back into the hole. But if you want to remove the screw and then remove the guard from the mower, it's up to you.

Do you know why a deck belt would be slipping off of a pulley consistently? I recently (two weeks ago, yet to mow till today) changed the deck belt and the engagement cable per your video instructions, and now the deck belt keeps slipping off of the pulley, specifically on the right side. I can reinsert it, but it will slip again. Might cut for two or three minutes then it will randomly disengage, and I know it will have slipped at that point. They're both MDT parts. I'm stumped.

Very thoroughly covered and clear. Thanks for making the video.

It took me a lot longer than it took you to change it but i got it lol i did just change it now at midnight outside with no lights tho lol thank you for the video.. i just put my belt back on tho. It came off because i had too much grass in the deck from cutting thick tall grass
