Default Cub cadet 125 belt help needed
I recently got on here and found a diagram to go by to get parts for the mower deck on my cub 125. It needed a new belt and the diagram showed the belt as part number 477-599-R2. Well I ordered the belt and when it came in i went to try and install it and it was too short. Does anybody know if this is actually the right belt or is there a different one I need to now order?

That would be the correct belt for the spindles on a 42" deck.

It would depend on which if the two belts on your machine that you are needing and what size deck you have.

Here is the link to the belt chart http://home.comcast.net/~dos0711/CCBELTCHART.htm

You make no mention of the model of the mower deck you are using.

I have got the 42" deck under my tractor. I couldn't even get the belt to go on even with the tentioner pulley completely backed off. Am I missing something else here on installing this belt.

The CPE-2B Parts Manual lists the IH-490489-R2 as the correct PTO belt for a 125 with a 42" QA Mower Deck.

IH-477599-R2 = 1/2" x 77" Spindle Belt
IH-490489-R2 = 3/8" x 80" PTO 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.
