Moved a mulch pile a little further away from the driveway, so I will have more room to put snow later.

Before:


I got about 1/4 of it moved with the tractor before I got tired of messing with it and just grabbed a shovel.

After:


Carnage:


It keeps throwing the belt to the hydraulic pump. Pretty sure my pulleys aren't all in the same plane, especially the tensioner.
I am thinking the whole thing deserves a rethink so that tension side of the belt goes direct to the pump pulley and then doesn't have to take a turn on the way back to get around the front wheel. That will probably involve relocating the pump, not sure yet where it will end up. Maybe under the console if I move the starter solenoid off to the side. Either that or hanging out front.
