Default A little help with the deck on my 100 please
When you drop the deck it throws the belt. Looks like the deck is angled forward causing the belt the jump off the pulley. I see the eye bolts (probably the wrong term) that hold the deck to the front of the under carriage, but it doesn't look like I can raise the front of the deck any more than it already is. Is there a way to lower the back of the deck. The rear of the deck needs to go down (or the front needs to go up) so the belt will be inline with the top pulley on the deck. I can run the deck all the way up, but as soon as I start to lower it the angle of the belt in relation to the pulley gets farther off the lower it goes, hence it throws the belt. Thanks guys.

Brent

Need more info, and maybe some pics. Which deck? Do you have the "quick attach" subframe? Did you just add the deck?

I'll snap some pics tomorrow after work. No quick attach. It was on the tractor when i bought it, but took it off and never used it till now. When I bought it, I ran the deck when I looked at it but I never lowered it, so it might have been doing the same thing then. I think I have the deck with the cast iron ends. I couldn't find a manual for the same deck in the resource section. Anyways, pics tomorrow. Thanks.

Belt looks good and I'm pretty sure it's the correct one. In the pic i'll show how the belt isn't in a straight line with the pulley. The front of the mower deck pulley is low, so the belt comes off. Probably something simple I'm just missing.

I believe in one of the manuals somewhere it says, to add spacers between the top of the deck and the brackets that pin to the lift frame.

I have several decks that have various type of spacers/shims to lower the rear of the deck.

It would be a lot of work but, I believe that it would be best to replace all of the worn parts that keep the front of the deck up.

The rock shaft and the forked bracket ("front pivot link support") often times, wear badly.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
