Just got this 782 a while back with Snow Plow and Mower Deck ( frame included).
Teh assembly of teh Mower Frame to the Cub seems intuative accept that I believe one of the Blocks and Links is incorrect. One side looks like what appears on the parts listing (http://www.cubcadet.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ARIPartFinderView?storeId=10051&catalogId=14101&langId=-1#/Cub_Cadet/357_38%22_Mower%2c_190-357-100/Hanging_Frame_%26_Mule_Drive/005950-A/0059500003) while the other side is a 'Z' shaped piece. The Rockshaft posts measure 9" across while the Frame will not configure to that with the bracketry that is on there. No way to hang the frame this way. No problem I can do what it takes to make this work.
Assuming I have the correct Links, is there enough 'play' in teh links to slide the Frame under the Cub, attach teh front then lift the frame up to get the links ontop the Pins on the Rockshaft? Is there enough movement in the Links to spread them and get them on the rockshaft pins?
Question #2. With Deck and Frame on the Cub; Is there supposed to be a locking handle of sorts to push in and lock to make room for the belt on one Idler spring? Something that you release and it tensions up the belt? I just have long threaded rods running out from those two forward idlers. Maybe someone can run through the Belt on process
