Belts size and where for Del Morino Funny Top Flail

[TBD]

Does anyone know the belt size and where to get the two drive belts for a Del Morino Funnytop Flail mower. They were a little loose from new but I left them where they were set. I burned one in the wet grass and need replacements. My search shows they are out of stock everywhere but I haven't seen the size to search that way.

Thanks,
Tedd

Unfortunately Good Works Tractor Co. shows them as "expected in late winter". I have a Del Morino Centurion Super 158 that I bought through Courtney at GWTC. I should have a spare set of belts on hand but don't. I would think that there must be an automotive application that would work. Maybe a trip to NAPA would help.

Awesome link! The belts on my Del Morino are made in Germany and I was able to get a part number and cross-reference it to some options on that site. Thanks very much.

I ordered three of these belts after confirming the width and length. At one third the cost of the OEM belts it's worth a shot. A set of three for my Centurion are $149 from GWTC. It'll be interesting to see if these belts are of similar quality to the German made OE belts.

Thank you! I could not find that size. I have a set back ordered. And on a whim called my local Kubota dealer. The entire WWW was out of stock. Surprisingly they had them inn stock and at less $ than anywhere else. $39 each. They were shipped directly to my house and should be here today.

Anyone know where to get replacement bearing grease tubes for a Del Morino Finish mower? Every place I've checked is out of stock.

Zerk fittings? I don't think mine has any kind of tube.

Mine has tubes with zerk fittings on a manifold that run to the spindle bearings so they can be easily greased without removing the belt covers.

That's a high-end feature. You could reach out to Good Works Tractor Co. Courtney sells Del Morino products and he might be able to help.

Well my belts didn't slip and burn off. I hit something that punched a 1/4" sized hole in the shroud, and it created as sharp edge that stuck in and cut the belt.
The new belts came today. Install was easy...because my brother was there and he held a 2' pc of wood against the belt while I eased the clutch out. 2 belts on in 30 seconds.
Not the recommended repair method, but we have been around machinery all our lives and know how to do the sketches things safely.

Just got notification that the belts I ordered shipped today so that's about one week after I placed the order. I'm out of town for work but this coming weekend I'll get the Del Morino on the back of the MX where it'll stay for most of the spring and summer.

I ordered these belts to have spares and don't plan on installing them at this point.
