Gravely series 524 - 25038 new belts

Hi, by now everyone should know I am not a snowblower person, anyway I installed new belts, Oregon, 75-333, when the engine is running, everything is turning without holding the clutch levers, there is slack in both cables. Might the problem be all the belt dressing that is on the pulleys from me spraying in an attempt to get the old belts to hold. Thanks,Have a good one. Geo

and yes, the belt dressing could be the problem as well as the belts could be just a tad too short or too wide.
