OK.
I recently obtained a Cub Cadet 2160 with a 42 inch snowthrower
model 341, It was purchased from a Estate sale of a neighbor who died
suddenly of a heart attack.. This machine has 66 hrs on it, and has eaten
PTO belts with the snow blower attached since it was new. What happens is
the belt twists on the idler pulley so it rides on its side, and blows the
belt after a few storms.

I got 5 belts with the purchase :^) but have now gone through
them all, Belts have been installed correctly, (according to the manual
and picture showing the belt twists through the idlers and onto tie PTO
pulley.. Everything looks like it lines up ok. Just the belt off the idler
feeding the PTO, does not untwist under load causing the belt to lay on its
side? any ideas??

Thanks
