Even though I have one good belt (out of two)and the original owners manual, I still cannot find the belt that fits my Ferguson (Detroit Harvester) agricultural mower (sickle bar). The model is 6A-EO-B20 and the manual is for the "A" series (A-EO-B20). THe local M-F dealers can't even match up the number on the one M-F belt I already have (668117M1). Any help surely appreciated. wc

Hey 52' 8N MD---

You might try this www.fergiland.com and ask if they can help. They are in the UK and may have more access to parts than here. Or else try posting on the Ferguson link- I've found they're just as friendly as N'ers. HTH

I can't believe it! I searched with google and found the JDV-Belts.com (JayDee Enterprises) before I got three replies on the Ferg board all mentioning the same outfit. I talked with Mel and he gave me the elusive belt formula. The formula, BTW, to figure out the right belt is:

Sum of Outer Diameters of pulleys times 1.57 plus 2 times median distance between centers of pulleys. For my 6A-EO-B20 Ferguson mower this is:

[8"+ 5.5" X 1.57] + [2 X 10.25] = 41.695"

The tricky part is knowing that the DayCo (one of the brands carried by JDV) belt numbers need to be adjusted upward by a half of an inch to compensate for the pitch of the belt. So say the DayCo number is 24410 (First two digits are in 32nds of an inch 24/32" belt width by 41.0" length, the last three digits). To get to the compensated effective length that equals the output from the formula above you add a 1/2". So since I needed a belt with a nominal length of 41.695" the DayCo 24410 is a good match - 24/32" = 3/4" width by 41"+.5"= 41.5".

Again, thanks for your reply! wc
