I have a B6200 Kubota with a belly mower. The mower belt keeps breaking. Can anyone tell me how to keep this from happening?

Check the rotation of the spindles the belt rides in. If any one of them are hard to move they will have to be replaced.Additionally, the spring tension is important too. Check your manual to see what the spring length should be.Are you cutting a clean lawn or are you running over small branches and stuff. if so, you will increase your belt wear if they get stuck and you have to manually free them. remember that the belt is still moving but the spindle is stuck so you're burning off belt life when the blade is stuck.You also need to check the grease fittings on the spindles. There should be one fitting on each one. Make sure the fitting isn't frozen which would prevent grease from getting in thus making it tougher to turn the spindle which would reduce belt life (also wears out the bearings) ....
