Hello,
I am new to this forum and am interested in purchasing my first Cub Cadet Tractor. I found a Cub Cadet 682 that I like and I have a couple of questions that I would like to ask about the Cub Cadet 682. First, how many hours are these tractors usually good for? Secondly, is the 17 hp twin cylinder Kohler motor a good quality, long lasting motor? Third, is it possible to put a tiller attachment on these tractors and if so, what size of tillers can you put on these? Being able to have a tiller on it is important to me as I would like to start a small tilling business in the future. Lastly, is there anything else that I should know about these tractors that would help me in making a decision? Thanks For The Help, Taylor |

A 682 is a fine tractor. 17 hp Kohler is a great engine when properly cared for. Watch out for the series 1 engines. You can add a tiller but with a manual lift you will need a spring assist. I till alot and me personally would only want hydraulic lift such as a 782.

I was doing more research and found out that the 682 does not have a rear pto. I was really wanting to have a rear pto so that if I put a tiller on the tractor it would be shaft driven instead of belt driven. Could someone please tell if there were any red Cub Cadet models made that had a rear pto?

The 982 was a red cub that could have a rear pto. It is classified as a super garden tractor. Tillers for the mentioned tractor are hard to find and very pricey when they are found. Other super garden tractors had rear pto's such as a 1572, 1772, 1872, 2072, etc., but these were yellow and white. One could always paint 'em red though.........

what's wrong with using a belt driven PTO for the tiller?

Even the 982 PTO's are ultimately belt driven:

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.
