Sorry, I did not give details...the snowblower is mounted on a JDX534 AWS tractor. This is a vert. shaft 20 hp equipped engine. the PTO is horizontal beneath. Snow blower is driven with a belt, apparently permanently locked in the snow blower driving a horizontal sheave on a gearbox. The belt always stays with the blower when detaching the blower. the blower has one spring loaded idler and one fixed idler causing the belt to wrap almost 300 degrees around the driven sheave. My problem is that this blower works well---for two seasons so far. This season, I may have caused a twist when I hooked it up, but that is almost impossible to do...very simple hook up. I think the wrapping idlers were not aligned (in plane) with the driven sheave and that hasseled the belt. When unjamming the existing belt, I made sure the idlers were shimmed better to feed and return the belt better.
Now I worry about the existing belt lasting. I depend on this expensive machine to clear the 300 foot driveway to be able to get out in emergencies to go to doctors, etc. Leo

There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
