Description

The Craftsman 954-04094 Ground Drive Belt is a power transmission part that carries power from the engine to the drive system of the tiller it is compatible with the appliance. It fits around the pulleys attached to the engine and the transmission so that friction is created between them for the rotational force to be carried through the drive mechanism to the wheels of the tiller. Positioned inside the assembly of the drive, it gets into contact when the control for driving is put on and gets out of contact when released.
