Deck Squeal

16 years ago

I have a Sears 46" deck with 3 blades. I have a loud squeal coming from the left side of the deck. Although the belt appears to be okay, I see it move away from the pulley when the blades are engaged. I see no apparent distortion in the pulley or shaft of either side (can't see the center pulley) and the the blades seem to turn without a lot of vibration. I think it must be a bent shaft, bad bearings or a bad belt. However, I am definitely mechanical challenged and thought someone might be able to help me determine the cause. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
