The rotor belt thing is kinda funny to me Some local guys complain and gripe all the time about there rotor belts breaking and the situation was brought up by some local green guys and my dad laughed and goes well ive ran red since i traded in my two gleaners back in the early 80's and ive only had one belt break Its kinda like anything if you treat it well..more than likely it will do its job and have a good life
