Jeremy Holmes , Check/verify that you have the correct size belt installed and if worn/stretched replace it, then make sure all the belt keepers/retainer guards/guides/pins are in place and not bent away from pulleys too far(allowing belt to jump off)1/8" gap is good.Ensure belt routing is correct,check for worn bent pulley's or excess debri around them, level the deck.

Check your pulleys for wobble and make sure your belt is the right belt.
if that don't work for you use a smaller belt it will be hard to put on but it will last forever.

The mower deck belt came off on my ZTS 7500, I found the Idler pulley had worn off on the top side. I investigated and found that I raised the deck too high it wore off the top side of the pulley. The height markings for the deck were wore off, I simply painted the height markings for the mower making sure the pulley was clear of the bottom of the mower. A new pulley was about $40. I just have to make sure I don't raise the deck too high.
