My 126 runs great, but I have been having problems with the elec lift. It goes down ok but try to lift the blower it might go up 1/2 ".
Noticed when I test battery voltage it jumps all over the place 2-18 volts. I took the switch apart yesterday cleaned all the contacts still have the same problem. I took the lift off and brought it to a local electrical shop and the lift tested out good. I also have the spring assist on my 126 but it seems like it just doesnt have enough ump to lift the blower. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

Did the shop check the bearings in the lift? Or just the motor? Usually if they work ok without a load but stop once a load is put on it, it could mean the bearings are shot (No.6 and 5 in the pic) I replaced them in a 147 lift and it fixed it.

Sounds like a weak battery, I'd take it somewhere and have it load tested.

Well I completely tore down the electric lift, degreased & cleaned everything. Purchased the refresh kit from ebay.
I reassembled the lift with the correct grease, put it back on the cub and the translating tube will rotate both ways. But the only way it will try to lift the blower is if i pick up on the translating tube it might move a 1/2" max. Everything inside of the lift looked good, not wore out everything fit nice and snug. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Next thing will be to locate a aftermarket replacement. As this is the only way to lift the attachments on my 126. |

Does it lift ok with not so much of a load?
Does the tractor have a spring assist? IIRC the translating the should not turn until it gets to the end of it's travel. You may need to adjust the rubber on the end of the clevis. I'm not saying that it definitely would not, but I'm not completely sure an electric lift would pick up a snow thrower when they were new if the tractor didn't have a spring assist.

Had a typo in my last post that I missed, it should have read:

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.
