Default 129 PTO Handle
I just picked up a 129 and the lever that engages the mule drive is so worn that it will not disengage the drive. I had hopes of welding it up but I don't know how to remove it. The lever itself is not worn it is the dog that engages the notch that is worn. Any comments would help.
Thanks
Russ

Are you talking about the spring loaded trip lever on the tractor that releases the quick attach on the front? Or the belt tensioner on the mule drive itself??

The lever on the left of the console that, I assume, engages the pto.

Ok, that is completely different than your post reads....

So, you need to adjust it? Did you try that?

Here is a link to the manual for your machine. Read up on PTO adjustment.

Edit:
You talk about wear on the lever.... post a pic and let's see what your talking about. Your terms don't make much sense.

Yea, I am a little confused myself. Can't post pictures, so, the lever on the left of the console has a button to push down to disengage from a notch in the bracket that holds it. The pin, for lack of a better word, that engages the notch is badly worn and also twists enough that it will not keep the pto disengaged. I also have to hold the lever back to start the tractor. I now remember that there is a take up or adjustment in the rod that runs to the pto, I never thought about it before. I will try that next.
Sorry if I seem confusing.

If the rod that is attached to the button is worn out, I'm not sure if it can be removed for repair or not. Never tried. If the notch that the rod goes in is worn, it will be a lot of work to get to it to repair. Either way, sounds like your going to have some work cut out for you to repair it. If we are talking about the same parts.

Why can't you post pics? Everyone can.....

Edit:
I changed the title to reflect what your actually having issues with.

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.
