Mend Craftsman 917.271813 Lawn Tractor Drive Belt

Need a diagram of Craftsman Lawn tractor Mod.#917.271813?

I need to install a new drive belt on this lawn mower and have lost my booklet with the diagram. The Sears websites diagram is no help. Please help me, my grass is almost too tall to mow. :>)

To install the belt depress and lock the brake. That will remove the tension on the clutch idler. You may need to loosen several belt retainers, they are rods that keep the belt from flying off the pulleys when the tension is repeased.
I start by putting the belt around the transaxle pulley first.

Well whit, I have the same problem. I have a Craftsman lawn tractor Model no. 917.270780. I just purchased a new deck belt (to engage blades) at Sears yesterday ($22.99 + tax).
Yes, The belt routing diagram is under the left foot brake, right on top of the deck itself.
I'm going out to attempt to install it, now. I wish there was a way to find out the correct procedure to install it. I have no manual.
My grass is as high as an elephant's eye!

There should be a diagram under the left foot rest for the drive belt routing.
