Anyone know the length of the 1835 drive belt for snowblower attachment. Just way too much slack in one provided by PO with machine. The model of blower attachment is 917 250680
Thanks

thanks,,explains why the 60" belt is a tad sloppy...i measured pulley run and came up with 56"...Also slop in the chain drive on blower attachment even after turning cam...I am thinking take out a link or two for the time being...

Check the chain sprockets too.  If they show heavy wear, and they could if the chain is stretched that much, you may want to replace sprockets and chain.

Never considered the sprockets being worn...makes sense as its a old unit and no doubt well used over the years....I did take it out and blow a bit of snow, only a few inches in driveway but it works...I wait till we have packed a foot of snow on driveway. After that I'll remove snow if there is a substantial amount..
