Those don't work on any of the cubs I have ever owned. I keep pressing them but darned if I ever see my ice cream cooled root beer ever appear anywhere around.

No, that is a good point. Perhaps the float button is stuck in place. With the tractor off, change positions of the deck height and check the L-shaped rod catch on the bottom to make sure it is keeping in the groove of the armstrong lift and that it is engaging into the teeth on the bracket. Inspect the teeth of the bracket, too. Make sure that they are not bent. If something was hit hard (ie. stump or rock) or if the cub had a blade on the front and something was hit hard, then the teeth can become bent and will not allow the L-shaped rod catch in the grooves. If the L-shaped rod becomes turned and does not center on the L-shaped bracket, that may also cause it to fail to catch the teeth on the bracket, as well. It may be helpful to have someone press the button and adjust the height of the deck as you inspect what is going on front the bottom side.
