This multi-ribbed V-belt transmits power from the engine crankshaft to the accessory drive components, including the alternator, water pump, and cooling fan. It sits in the front-end drive system of the host tractor, routing around multiple pulleys to maintain tension and grip across the belt's full width. A worn or glazed belt slips under load, causing undercharging, overheating, or reduced hydraulic pump output. The belt is manufactured by Gates, a supplier of original-equipment drive belts. Its rib profile and pitch length match the original pulley groove geometry, so no tensioner adjustment beyond the standard specification is needed during installation. Replace the belt at the interval specified in the tractor service schedule.
