John Deere F687 Belt Size FAQ

Why can the correct John Deere F687 deck belt still slip?

The deck belt length found is 137.6 in (3,495 mm). Even with the right length, a weak idler spring, worn pulley groove or wrong belt path can make it slip. The part number and routing matter together

Should you buy the John Deere F687 belt by length only?

No. The drive belt width found is 1 in (25 mm). That is a heavy/wide belt size. Width matters here because a thinner substitute can lose grip, heat up or wear the pulley faces. Use length, width and OEM part number together where possible

Are the John Deere F687 deck and drive belt lengths close?

The deck belt is 137.6 in (3,495 mm) and the drive belt is 108 in (2,743 mm), about 29.6 in (752 mm) different. That is enough to treat them as separate belts when ordering

Official information note

Mistakes do happen. Belt specs can change by year, mower deck, pulley layout, serial range and regional parts catalog. Please check the operator manual, belt routing decal, old belt label and official John Deere parts catalog before ordering a replacement belt.
