I brought my 1320 out of retirement to cut grass today. First time in over a year, it started right up, I didn’t even have to charge the battery.

Lawn looks good! :ThumbsUp:

Looking good! :beerchug:

Thanks guys!

what I did to my cub today
 

I started stripping down my 1772 today to install my three point hitch and PTO finally that I purchased on a 2072 last year. Will download pics as I am going, repainting frame, fender pan, rims, cant wait to see it completed. Stay tuned.:biggrin2:

Looking forward to your pics!

Came across this... CURB SIDE late last week. CUB CADET SRC621.
It's a sort of Cub ( MTD)... I know I know it doesn't count.

Handle bar brackets were Boltless, Gear select cable (6 gears) wasn't even close to adjusted. Hasn't seen Grease probably since it was new ( 2002 era). Valves needed adjusting. AND a serious bath. A couple of hours of casual tinkering and , as a Sea Trial, I mowed 1 acre. Not sure what to do with ANOTHER spare mower but when I see these things Curbside I cannot see them heading for the crusher.

Any room for a small Gusset on the bend?

Worked on the 782D yesterday. The PTO solenoid gets hot (as does everything under the hood) and the housing of the fast-on connector that mates to the solenoid seems to relax when warm. That coupled with the lack of spring tension in the connector blades allows the solenoid to drop out after everything heat soaks.

I reseated the conductors inside the connector housing (harness end) and cleaned everything so Mister Ohm doesn't contribute to the heat and we're back to normal operation now .

Anyone know what the current draw is for the mower PTO when it's in the "hold" state? Must be a fair amount.

Nice save Tony! Looks like it'll be good for a good long time...hardly broken in!
