1863 with GT 317190 Loses Power when Deck Runs
I'm so happy to have found this site! I am a "typical woman" in that I really never wanted to understand how these types of things work, but fate has made it so I must learn all about this tractor! I have put so much money in it over the past few years and I think I finally found a great guy who really understands Cub Cadet tractors! That's the good news. The bad news is that it seems every other time or so when I mow, something else goes wrong!
 The latest is whenever I engage the mower deck, the tractor all but stops completely! I have no power and basically had to crawl along last night to finish mowing my 1+ acre yard! This started about 1/2 way through. I know I didn't run over anything, no cords, wires, roots, sticks, nothing. I've had major maintenance on this thing this year (and last, actually), and I cannot figure out what the heck could be causing this loss of power! The deck works like a charm (now), and the PTO switch has been replaced this year, oil change, greased, once-over, etc., so I have no idea what is causing this. Do you? Oh - and does anyone know where I could find a diagram of all of the places to grease the tractor and deck? I am the proud owner of a "trigger" grease gun and grease, but I can't tell from the owner's manual where to grease the tractor, let alone the mower deck! Thanks!

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.
