The older Mule drives and cross overs can do that if you don't spend the time to make the pulley run clear and cleanly. Most of my pullies are pitted and have some rust. Then the drive is slightly out of alignment. I tend to need to adjust every three or four cuts. The last time because it just kept throwing the belt off and when that happens sometimes it gets in-between pulleys and gouges the belt. I know what I need to do. I need to disassemble the drive redrill out a bracket then sleeve it so it keeps in line. You may need to do things like that. I intend to either video tape or picture the problem areas then show what we need to do to fix these. I'm a little behind on projects, so right now I'm still adjusting...
