I bit my tongue at dinner last night. I hate that!

Had to take my dentures out, ruined the rest of the meal.

it's a 3/8" belt. You need to be able to get it off without cutting it though so you can get the new one on without cutting it.

You can pull the grille screen out if you don't have enough clearance. You should have enough clearance though. I haven't messed around too much with 100s, but the "push the PTO forward to get enough clearance" is the way you get the belt onto the PTO on manual PTO clutch Cub Cadets.

It looks like the front grill is bent inwards a little bit. As it was said before, you can pop the grill out to make room. Or, just use a little muscle and push the grill forward just enough to make room to remove the belt.

Okay, here is the secret, remove the hood, then loosen the four bolts holding the grill housing and then tip the grill housing away, forward.

Works for me.

Is the lever just hitting the grill? Will it open further with grill removed?
Edit. Just saw Darkminion suggested this

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.
