I have a cub cadet, 46" mower with three blades in the deck.
When I am mowing, the center blade does not appear to be spinning.
The outside two blades mow, the center leaves an uncut strip.
When I stop, and shut off the mower. I can reach under and the blade turns freely and doesn't appear to have obstructions.
I have gotten off the mower and engaged the mower and all appear to turn from above.
My first thought is that the deck belt (lower - the one that spins the spindles) is worn (has never been replaced...500+ hours) and needs to replaced?
Thoughts? Am I overlooking anything?
