Is there an easy way to tighten the belt? I have an E20 with a
squealing belt. Thanks. Nick Skinner wrote: Have you retensioned the belts since you installed them? It is normal for belts to stretch in use so that may be a cause. Slipping belts tend to squeal though. If you're not hearing squealing, then I would look to something else for the problem. If they are slipping, try to avoid using belt dressing. It's only a band-aid solution.

Mostly level lawn, but does seem to be worse when trying to start on an incline. I think I put a new drive belt on last year. Is this likely to be the belt slipping? Thanks!
