Craftsman puts a diagram of the belts on the deck, look closely. If you can give me a model number I can help get a downloadable manual with diagrams. Here is a manual from another Craftsman, check page 24 http://www.managemyhome.com/mmh/lis_pdf/OWNM/98070415.pdf

I called Sears with the model number but they said they didn't carry the manual nymore because it was oldewr thean ten years. The model number is 944.602521

Morty, don't start a new thread each time you post, just drop down and type what you want in the blank box. That way all the posts string together like a blog. Are you certain on that model number, I could not find it myself.
