2015 Cub Cadet XT1 Enduro
 

The transmission belt was just replaced with an OEM. There are two issues: one is that the machine seems to hesitate going forward and reverse and there is little braking. Setting the parking brake is sporadic.

I am thinking that there is a linkage that may need adjustment to enable both operations to work more freely.

I did read a OCC post by HAYS1 in August 2024 that referenced an issue with braking. In that description there was a vertical rod beneath the steering wheel on the right side that was the culprit and it needed adjustment to ensure the drive and brake controls were linked properly.

Any thoughts on this? I will be investigating further to determine what the issue may be.

Thanks.
