I just purchased a hydro 129. The machine runs great, look good, came with a deck and snow blower... The only problem it seems to have, it a loose hydro handle....It speeds up or slows down with every bump it hits. This is my first hydro, so I am lost. Can someone please tell me how to adjust it to fix the problem. If I hold the handle, it will stay at a steady speed, both up and down hills. Any help will be appreciated.

I have never done it but just looked and from what I can see there is a mount on the bottom of the shifter shaft. It is split where it goes around the shaft. I believe if you tighten the bolt and squeeze it to the shaft some more you will have a firmer shifter. Maybe someone will chime in and confirm it. Hope it helps you.
Oh and congrats on your newly purchased 129! ![]() ![]()

My 129 is doing the same thing. I noticed that someone had already tightened up the bolt on the clamp as far as it could go. I found a field change pkg, part number 8007448 R91, from one of the vendors to upgrade this. Haven't installed it yet though. I also saw somewhere that someone had used belleville springs below that clamp to apply tension also.

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.
