About a year and a half ago I came home from school and my dad told me to come out back and look at what he got... I had no idea what it would be, we weren't very brand loyal so if could have been anything. When I came around the corner I saw a wheel horse sitting there. He said he got it for a 100 bucks, I assume he got it from craigslist. It ran perfect and it even had a deck with it! Before I got home he had already changed all 4 tires and rims as well as put some wheel weights on. Other then that, all I have ever had to do to it was change the blades after I broke one of them this summer. Its a 312-8 and I don't know the year. Knowing the year isn't something I NEED to know, im just curious. Were can I find some numbers or something else that would help? I couldn't find anything on the engine. Ill try for pics of it tomorrow.

There should be a model number tag on the mower deck. You'll need that to find the right belt. Or do you mean the drive belt that goes from the engine to the deck? Either way, I'll have to leave it up to someone else as I do not have a manual for your model.

Are you sure? I'm not saying that you're wrong, just that mine has a double stacked pulley on the center blade. The belt from the engine drives the top pulley in the stack, which is connected to the one below it, and a separate belt drives the other blades. Mine also has 3 blades. What size deck is it, 36" or 42"?

Sorry, That's a new one on me LOL. I have probably 5 mower decks lying around for the "C" and the 300/400 series tractors and they're ALL 3 blade, 42" side discharge units. I'll bet that wont be a cheap belt though! It's got to be very long! I did some more digging and I just can't seem to find the info for you. A model number off of the deck might help though.
