    My mower is 10-15 years old. The blade drive belt broke, I need instructions on how to put the new one on. A diagram would be great.

    The pulleys that are flat receive the outside of the belt and the slotted pulley receives the inside of the belt. Just try to route it with the belt in this type configeration and see what that does. I know this is not a lot of info but the best I can do. If it were a Deere, I could get you up and going.Good Luck
