I am no expert cause I only run my 149 in the winter. In it I use
Kohler 10w30 oil. Change it out to 30 when days are consistently above 40-45 deg The lighter oil really helps the starting in the cold.

This question arises often and always gets varied responses. That is why it is described in the Technical Section of the Forum (under Tractors). You should reference that to seek a response to your question. Not trying to be short with you, but trying to help you become more familiar with the forum and more resourceful.
Keep in mind that the 125 and 127 are hydrostats, so cold starts are more difficult as the hydraulic fluid is thicker viscosity. However, some guys have heated garages/storage facilities or they run heated magnets on the bottom of their rear end of their cubs. I run 10w30 pure synthetic in my cubs and never had any problems with engines. The 126 should start up a lot easier since it is a geardrive. Drive safely, eh! Cub Cadet 123

30wt Sgell Shell Rotella year round in my Cubs, no heated garage or block heaters. Start, give it 10 or so to warm up and get to work!

In temps dropping below 32F, SAE30 is not going to be a good choice. Don't take my word on, ask Mr Google to ask Mr Kohler. 10W30 or 5w30 is the winter oils of choice. |

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.
