The manual tells you everything except HOW TO CHANGE THE BELT on the model TBE515
Easy to find parts and order them!
A total piece of junk; burns oil & engine seizes. Had to replace belt after second use. I invest in many lawn products but never again anything with a Troy-Bilt sticker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
