Greased up the spindles and sharpened the blades and back to knocking down the weeds. Wow, this thing really cuts nice, love those front deck wheels.

Thanks Brian. If your 1200 has the right PTO and the right mule drive it should all take the type A, 1/2" belt. (Which I would call the "thin" belt) The wider type B, 5/8" belt would be for the 82 series tractors with the 4" diameter pulleys on the mule and the 44c deck.

This is where I am confused.

I tore up 2 - 1/2" x 81" belts on my 1200. (here is one http://www.ebay.com/itm/CASE-IH-4734...oAAOSwKtVWzSh0) The other was from TSC.

The sides kept tearing and shredding. It looked like it was rubbing on the sides. It was also VERY hard to get it on, as though it was too short.

Then I looked up the belt size through cubcadet.com and it showed a 3/8" x 81" belt. P/N IH-473462-R4

I also used the belt reference in the tech section and it showed a 3/8 x 81" belt.

I ordered a 3V810 belt and put it on, and it fits great. Used it for 3 hours and had no issues with the belt. I simply had to tighten it up a little bit after an hour or so.

Oh, and great work, as usual, on the mower deck!

...but Maxwelhse is running a wide frame, do they use a different belt?

How are your mule drive pulleys? maybe the're tearing up the sides of your belts?

For what it's worth I have a 1/2"x79" On my 1200 with a 44A deck. Haven't had any problems. I got it from tsc. Works for me!

Here is the manual I was using

http://www.cubcadet.info/Manuels/Bel..._1947-2004.pdf

And here is a screenshot of what I am referencing. (pgs B4 and E14)

I have a 38" deck, I think it's a 38A, but it's the same P/N regardless. I also looked at the 44A deck and it also says a 3/8 belt

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.
