Default My 1450 " Cadet hydro speed control" issue
My 1450 exhibits the symptoms of slowing and speeding up without me moving the control. I briefly read the thread "Cadet 123 hydro speed control". My cam plate and the pin that rides in the slot are worn so I believe this is the problem. From what I have seen looking at various part sources it appears that new parts are available to remedy this problem. Should I be looking at replacing these parts or welding up the worn areas? Maybe I'm missing the context of the original thread.

I did my 123 and 147 by welding the corners and filing them back to original shape, taking care as your welding. I wrapped a wet towel down around the bottom so not to get the case hot.
Bought new springs and end caps. Works like a new machine.

Thanks for the response; I'll be looking at this closer this weekend. When I was looking at this last night I was sure the problem was the groove on item 6 in the drawing that by being worn was allowing the linkage to move fore and aft thus causing the tractor speed to slow or increase. When I fix the trunion slot should I also look at replacing/repairing the cam plate?

If you can grab us some pics of the items as you are working on them, we can determine if it is bad enough to warrant a new one. Usually the trunion fix will take care of about 95% of your problems.

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.
