Abstract
A mower drive belt tensioner arm includes an elongate body having a tension pulley to provide tension to a mower drive belt. One of a pair of rear draft towers on the mower deck supports the elongate body above the surface of the mower deck. A coil spring urges an end of the elongate body in a direction between the pair of draft towers. A pivotable belt keeper may be mounted to the tensioner arm without tools, and extends over the perimeter of the tension pulley.
