Hi all,
I have the victa 5-26 series 7 mower and after hunting around for parts its finally operational again. I am chasing a manual for this machine, particularly showing the parts layout and numbers. Would be interested in a copy or pdf or buy the manual. Even if someone knows the manual part number as some of these are avail in states.
After using the machine for a couple of hours on weekend cutting at a high level (minor slashing) I have managed to destroy the cutter belt. For some reason the v section of the belt has disintegrated and left the outer ribbing. By the time I smelt the belt it was too late. I checked pulleys and the belt has been riding at middle of the v (not bottoming out in the v) and pulleys seem to be in good nick.
I am wondering if maybe cutting at the highest level whether or not the tension on belt may have not been enough... slack springs?
Any help appreciated before I install a $60.00 belt.
Also the chain drive to the gearbox, to adjust slack out of chain do I remove a link or purchase a new chain?
Cheers Andrew
