Actually Wes has it backwards: the top (forward) band is the PTO drive, the bottom (rear) is the brake. The screws in the photo look as though they're screwed in just about as far as they'll go, so it's probable this unit needs new bands. Big thing on the adjustment is to make sure (engine off) that the PTO shaft rotates freely with the control lever more-or-less in the middle postition -- I like to adjust it so that the drive band is a bit tighter (shaft rotates freely with the lever about 1/3 of its travel up from the braking position). This helps prevent the drive band from slipping under heavy load. Best technique I've found is to turn the individual screws in until the shaft won't rotate properly, then turn that screw back out just enough to allow the shaft to turn properly (lever in middle position). This is a fussy adjustment at best, and worn bands make it worse. Take your time and good luck. The adjustment is described pretty well in the Operators Manual which is well worth having.
