Hello

My Sears 1000 XLT tractor is driving absloulutely nuts . The pulley
that drives the left side blade keeps stripping. The pulley is
attached to it's shaft with a star connection. If I hit a root or
stick or for whatever season the blade is stopped the belt will
keep the pulley spinning and the connection is destroyed. The star
opening on the pulley gets every so slightly stripped and enlarged
and begins to saw away at the spindle destroying both within
seconds. This happens only on the left blade, never on the right.
To replace the pulley and spindle costs me about $60 each time. so
far in the two years that I have owned time machine this happened
4 times! Can anyone tell me what going wrong ?

Sears is just about the cheapest crap you can buy.



I have a Sears tractor, I like it, I just have to watch for psycho
killer 10" pine sticks of doom.
Some people also think I should be locked in a mental hospital, but
they are really the crazy ones!!!!

Oh, and if they call you crazy one more time, you'll hunt them down
and kill them. :^)


With a ten inch pine stick? lol
