Default Model 100
I just purchased my first Cub, a Model 100 with mower deck and snowplow. I have a few questions.

Where is the serial number?

It has a 50A mower deck. What size belt goes to the deck?

Where can I find an air cleaner assembly?

Thanks

(A) the 100 would have one hell of a time with a 50" mower deck. A 38" or 42" was more inline with the 100's capabilities.
(B) The 50A Mower Deck was NEVER designed for the 100

There is no belt chart or guideline for the 100 w/50A deck combination.

As Roland said the 50" deck is going to be a bit much for the 100 unless you mow twice a week and never let it get tall. Where in PA are you located? Congrats on the new Cub.

That is what I feared after doing some research. I was planning on replacing my MTD riding mower with the Cub. I guess I have to keep the MTD going a little longer.
Thanks for the help.

there was a guy on the other tractor site that I frequent who was asking about a "100" and when he posted pix it was actually a "1000". still with a 10hp a 50" would be a workout, but would be an easier fit to the frame/chassis... wonder if we are talking about the same mixup in tractor model here?

I only run a 44" deck on my 1000. She cuts great. I don't think I'd put a bigger deck on a 10 horse. Actually, all my Quietline tractors run 44a decks, except my 1100, it runs a 38c.

Question
No, it is definitely a 100. Do you have any fenders lying around? Lol

I found the serial number block but I cannot see any numbers on it.

Are the frames and mules specific to a mower deck or does the 38" and the 42" use the same one?

Thanks for all the help. My first Cub and I already think I have a problem and need meetings or something.

We were all new once, but it was so long ago, FDR was in office.

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.
