Honda hf 2216 S ride on mower drive belt

[farghi]

Im looking for some help and assistance with the above mower.
The drive belt snapped, I stripped it and ordered the new belt.
Wrong size too small! I ordered another quoting serial number of machine too small again.
No-one can apparently supply the correct belt.
Ive fitted the last belt but the machine wont go into gear. If I start it in gear it does drive but wont come out of gear, clutch doesn't disengage.
It has gears so not the hydrostatic axle
The service manual shows 6 pulley wheels but mine has 8 pulleys. See drawings below
I cant find any reference to the 8 pulley drivetrain.
Does anyone have any ideas
Thanks for reading

Hi, and welcome to TGMForum.

I don't have honda parts manuals to hand, but a quick google search I found this one, which if you count the engine and gearbox pulley it has 8 pulleys.

This give a part number for the belt which is, 80478-VK1-003  Is this a different number from the one you were supplied?
