Belt tensioners, especially spring loaded ones, ALWAYS go on the slack side of the drive belt. In other words, the side of the belt that is not under drive tension. The center pulley is the drive pulley, it is connected to the engine. It spins clockwise facing it from the top. Therefore, the section of the belt off the left side of the center pulley is being "pulled". It pulls on the pulley on the left side of the deck. Then the pulling force continues to the far side of the deck to the right hand pulley. The section of belt that goes between the right hand pulley and the center drive is not under tension. That is where the idler pulley will go. In the pic, the red line representing the belt the OP had installed, the tensioner was on the driven side, or tension side of the belt. Therefore, the torque would simply collapse the spring, and the section of belt between the right pulley and center pulley would go slack, and lose friction as the belt entered the groove on the RH pulley.
Belt routing 101: Spring loaded tensioner ALWAYS goes on the slack section between the last driven pulley and the drive pulley.

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.
