I’ve been doing that, writing on the sleeve what it fits. And I wrap tape around the belt and put the length on it. Of course today, I need a 84”. I’ve got a 83, a few 82’s, 79, 78, and others. Jumpins.

Your supplier is probably better than what we have around here. Your pretty much on your own to get the size you need. Which would be fine except I always seem to find a way to pick the wrong one!
I try to keep extra belts around too, but naturally when I need one I don’t have the right size! I stared keeping the cardboard sleeve the belts come in and write on it what it fits. Next time I need on I can look at that and know what size I need.

I need to do something like that because every time I need to put the deck or snowcaster on I must try at least three different belts before I find the right one.

Great idea with the tape! I'll do that from now on. I'll use painter tape.

I keep the sleeves as well . On customers tractors I know I will service again I write the belt sizes on the bottom of the hood . The tape trick I learned for my belt supplier . There are two ways to measure a belt from the center line how it runs on the pulleys (letter for width and length in "s ,but you need the measuring tool for that . Or the width and length around the out side ( Outside Circumference ) in "s .
