    Why does my bolens hydrostatic riding mower keep burning the belt up
    Took to the shop and had the belts and blades changed ever since I've had it back it burns belts up just about every time I get on it. Scared if I take it back he'll charge to fix what it seems he broke. Can anyone maybe tell me what I to look for so I could make the repair myself?
    Thanks,
    Clint

    I would avoid that shop, sounds like they installed the wrong belt or have it so far out of adjustment its silly.

    Hi,
    Motion drive belt? Need a model number, and serial possibly. I would say it is a stuck idler, but that is a guess so far.
    Peace,
