882 belts
Am getting my 882D ready for the season and I noticed the Alt/waterpump belt and the radiator fan belt both look a bit tired. When I tried to figure out how to replace them it looks as if the engine has to be pulled.
The alt/wp belt has the driveshaft running through it, and the fan belt looks as though the electric PTO has to come off, which probably means pulling the radiator. Does anyone have any cunning ways round this, or do I just cross my fingers and hope the belts last a bit longer?

Chris, you have to pull the driveshaft to change the alt/waterpump belt, its a PITA to do. For the front belt, you can remove the shroud on the radiator, then remove the mount that holds the fan itselt from the front of the engine block. That will give you the room to change that belt. My belts are not real pretty, but with my 782d only really getting used at plow days, I am running them till they are really bad. You might have to unhook the power wire on the front clutch, but looking at it, I think the belt will slip over it once you can get it past the fan for the rad. Mike

one down one to go
I decided to bite the bullet, as I use my 882D for regular mowing. I looked at those belts and I just knew that one was going to let go and I would have to replace it on an emergency basis, probably when it was 90 degrees and 100% humidity. The fan belt is relatively easy. You unplug the PTO wire and then remove the top bolt and loosen the bottom bolt on the piece that restrains the PTO from turning. You can then work the old belt out and put the new belt on. So far so good.
The alternator belt can be worked back into the drive tunnel, but you still have to break the driveshaft. I plan to undo the rear flex joint, which is readily accessible. If I find I can take the entire flex joint out, that will give me the room I need to pull the old belt and replace it. If I can't, then I will have to loosen the bolts holding the entire motor/radiator setup to the chassis and hope that I can get enough slack to let me replace the belt. Personally, I think this setup is Kubota's revenge for WWII. Will keep you posted.

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.
