Air can't escape, nothing can escape. Those valves release and allow the fluid to bypass the pump so the tractor can be rolled, without them the tractor would be unmovable. Overfilling the rearend has nothing to do with them leaking.

Nice looking 1811 and blower! Those 450 blowers are getting hard to find in good original condition. Glad you're enjoying it so far. And yes, get those auto-release valves pulled and rebuilt when there's a break in the weather. They can let go all at once and make a big mess and ruin all your fun.

Well the last couple days have been a good work out for my 1811 with 450 blower. We got just over a foot with some nice 4-5 ft drifts from a nice Noreaster . Very impressed how she handled it.
I definitely need more weight on the back of the tractor for the bottom of my driveway though . The grade is pretty steep and I slip even in slush pulling back up . Finding the right speed and leaning back over the back wheels with a nice run up seems to be best. I think a few suitcase weights will fix it and if it doesn't will think about filling the tyres. I did notice the V- belt the previous owner installed on the 450 and had written in pen under the hood was 5/8 x 82" ...the part number states an 84" ...will the 82" be too tight and be likely to break on me . ? - seems to be working o.k... Thanks a lot again guys! Tom |

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.
