Hydro project - 109 and 1250
One benefit of my driving job is that i get to travel the country and once in a while I can pick up some parts or even whole machines. My last trip was to Florida, and a member here had advertised a pair of 1250's...So on the way home a deal was done.
 Picked up a sad 1250 with one redeeming feature.. a complete hydraulic lift. Now I have what I needed to build a tilling machine, except....no tiller. And no rear lift, either..  Thanks to another member's posting of a craigslist search engine, I was able to find a 109 that was supposed to come with a tiller, altho none was pictured in the ad. I called the guy, found out in fact it had a 1A tiller, and a rear gearbox, and a rear lift, and a good mower deck. I really didn't need another tractor in the yard, but I haven't even seen any Texas tillers for sale , let alone ones I could afford... Another deal was struck...   On the way home I kept on thinking about what on earth I was going to do with another Hydrostatic Cub... I finally decided to strip everything required for a tiller off it, and make the rest into a mowing tractor for a neighbor. The previous owner had said he got it to run on the bench, but couldn't get the starter to operate once the engine was in the chassis. I ended up doing a quickie rebuild, the commutator was so black it looked like it had been painted... Apply 12V, and it worked, wire it up, and it started the engine... It actually ran quite well.. More to follow, will add pics in a minute...

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.
