Default 122 making odd squealing noise

I was at my grandmas riding the 122 around with my 3 year old daughter. Felt good riding it again after taking the starter/generator apart for cleaning and adding a new generator belt. But after 10th lap around the house the tractor developed on odd squealing noise(best I can describe it) that stopped whenever I pressed in the clutch. I did not have time to inspect it as wife wanted to get headed back home. I am looking for insights from the cub pros here on what it might be and solutions. Much appreciated.


-Nate

The thro-out bearing only spins when the pedal is pressed.

Better check the oil in the trans.

Yep sounds like the input bearing on the trans itself somehow got dry. Reason it stops when u pish the clutch is because the shaft stops spinning. My 124 started to make a sound today as I was mowing so I'm in the same boat

I could not figure out how to change that bearing on one tractor. I changed the entire front of the transaxle.

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.
