Hi, looking for some feed back on installing the drive belts all 3. I have had the skid steer for about 4 years. at times I feel the belt sleeping or when I put it in gear also the turning is sluggish at times. There is not a whole lot of info out there on adjusting or replacing belts. Any suggestions?
Thanks all

I changed belts on 1816's years back. Looking at the books, 1818's are the same. The pumps are mounted on plated that have a slotted holes to adjust the belt. Losen the bolts at the slotted holes and the bolts that the pump pivots on and they should slide oner and losen up. They may be stuck and you may have to use a prybar to move them.
