I traded some work for a replacement 14 HP for the 149. It is complete with correct PTO. The starter/gen pulley was loose so I pulled the PTO and installed a new bearing, checked pulley, it looked ok but key had a little wear from running loose. I turned the key and all felt tight so installed pulley and tightened it up and put PTO on. Installed it on tractor and started up. It has a walbro so after some adjusting it ran good, pulled back inside and checked. The pulley was loose so I tightened it back up. Last night I finished mowing with the 109 which has a lot of piston slap and getting weak, so I focused on getting the 149 finished so I won't blow up the 109, got a fuel tank on it and ran it again, within one minute the pulley was loose again. Am I not getting it tight enough, should I tighten one set screw first or does it matter, should I locktight the set screws, or is it the key wear that is causing this. The motor sounds good so I am going to get it going this weekend before the other blows up, just have to get this fixed and should be ready. I would have pics but some slug broke my window and stole my GPS and camera.

Try replacing the key, they're like 50 cents and should be replaced anyway.

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.
