I never do so good explaining things, but just take the belt off one pulley and turn it inside out. This will also help if you have a gas engine bolted down and the implment bolted down with a belted unit. Then your belt gets to loose.....you give it the inside out twist, and it tightens the belt just a little.
On a two cylinder that is slapping the belt, (usualy when you are putting the tractor on it's knees)if you are not careful you can put tear marks on a belt.
I learned this when I had a JD B on a Baker fan. A old JD man came up and suggested the inside out method............it cured the belt problem.
Every one will tell you that you are off your rocker until you show them.
One time at a show, a very fat guy did not use the cat gut for a belt splice. He used a stiff wire, and he was going to toss the belt before letting the long belt stop. The wire caught his sleve, and drug him. He got up to a fast pace, but his pants and underware cam a little slower as it drug him. After that I pretty much use the cat gut, or plastic.
