Description

The MTD 954-0434 Garden Tiller V-Belt is a high quality 1/2” x 58.16” replacement belt for several MTD garden tillers. This high-quality belt transmits power to the tiller’s tines from the engine providing the machine the necessary performance for soil preparation. This way, it reduces the chances of slippage and in the process increases the lifetime of the tiller and its efficiency. Ideal for the professional gardener, this V-belt enhances operations such as tilling, cultivating and aeration, thus improving the production of a suitable seedbed for your crops.

The MTD 954-0434 Garden Tiller V-Belt 1/2" X 58.16" transfers drive power through the tiller system, supporting steady movement and consistent tine operation.
