Cub Cadet 100 w/ mower deck mounting problem
Hi folks,
Been a while since I've been on here. Moved from Ct. to SC. last Nov. and loving it. Brought down my 1200 and 100. Never had a mower deck with my 100 but picked one up a few months ago. Trying to get it set up and running into a problem where the deck is pitched forward and I can't figure out how to level it to the shop floor. It's so bad that the belt will not stay on the pulley. Going to try and load some pictures and hopefully someone with a 100 set up can let me know what's going on with it. As it is now the center blade with the deck all the way down is about an inch off the floor and the rear of the blade is about 2.5 inches. Thanks, Joe

Best I can tell, that's a quick attach mule drive mounted to the frame which the 100 didn't come equipped with. Also noticed that the front deck hangers appear to be home made. I'm not home to take pictures of the correct set up, I'm sure someone will chime in with what you need. Found this picture on my phone of my 100. Has the pin on style mule drive that was used up to the 123. The QA mule probably hangs a little lower. Looks like a nice 100 with the hydraulic lift and creeper gear

Not sure why my pictures are coming out sideways or upside down as in the case of the second one down above which is showing the blade and how tilted it is to the concrete floor. Pictures were right side up on my gallery.

Three things to check closely; 1) The hanger "fork" the portion that slides onto the lift lever is badly worn which allows the front of the deck to droop. 2) The lift lever where the "fork" rests is also worn...has flat spot worn on it not round.
3) This affects side to side...the lift arm on the right side of the lift lever appears to lower than the left side arm. Consider the fact this tractor and deck are over 52 yrs old...there is cumulative wear through out...it adds up to a droopy deck. It can be corrected, but will take a great deal of welding, grinding and fitting.

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.
