Why is the belt slipping on my Frontier GM1190R Lawn Mower?
- SStacy NelsonAug 15, 2025
Belt slippage on your Frontier Lawn Mower can occur if the mower is overloaded with material that is too tall or heavy. Try reducing the tractor's ground speed while maintaining full PTO rpm. You could also cut the material twice, first with a high pass, then at the desired height, or cut a partial swath. Slippage may also be caused by oil contamination from overlubrication. Be careful not to overlubricate, and clean any lubricant from the belt and pulleys with a clean rag. Replace the belt if it's oil-soaked. Another cause could be the belt being hung up or rubbing. Inspect the belt for free movement in the pulleys and belt guides. Check under the mower and around the blade spindle shafts for any foreign material like wire or rags, and clean it all out from under the mower.
