    Question:
    Drive belt continually jumping off on LGT2554
    Details:

    I've had this LGT2554 for almost (if not) 2 years. Fantastic mower.  Reverse speed leaves a little to be desired, but that's not my main problem.

    Last summer, the drive belt jumped off twice.  Both times, I sent it to the dealer for service.  There was, perhaps, 4 hours between these services.  The first time the belt was replaced.

    This spring, the drive belt has jumped off no less than 6 times.  4 times I have been able to put it back on myself.  1 time I had my fleet (Pepsi Warehouse) mechanic inspect it to see why it kept jumping off.  He couldnt replicate the problem.

    I just dropped it off at the dealer for the 3rd time in 1 year due to the drive belt jumping off.

    I seem to have narrowed down WHEN it is jumping off...but not WHY.  It seems to be jumping off when I come to a stop using the brake.  The dealer told me he recalled having this problem with another LGT2554.

    Any advice or solutions I can take to the dealer?
