here is the diagram to wire the engine so the key switch will kill the engine. I believe your briggs is a magneto ignition like the kohler magnums.

Thanks DX3, I consider that a great compliment. And thanks to everybody for the pats on the back. I'm a member on a motorcycle forum and it seems there's always somebody on the sidelines waiting to flame someone. Not so here.

Finished the rebuild and repower last week. I found a flywheel screen that bolts right on the flywheel for the Briggs on ebay,that seems to be the correct way as suggested. I did buy the flywheel adapter for the Briggs as advised. Had to extend the driveshaft about 2-1/2" and installed new rag joints brucer95 made for me. To shut the engine off I got advice on how to wire up a relay on this forum and that works perfect. I found some polished, stainless 1" tubing for the exhaust and ran that out the grille. brucer95 also cut out a new underbelly debris screen that worked out just right. Put some Carlisle aggs on with fluid and also made a front weight bracket for plowing beens the tractor lost so much weight with the V-Twin. Made some brushed illuminum step plates from 1/8" stock. Only one thing I don't know how to do is test the charging system. Can someone tell me how to test to see if it is charging or not. I hooked up the short red wire from the rectifire to the original wire that went to the Kohler. I got alot of help from members of this forum. A big THANKS to all who helped with this project.


DSCF1099.jpg Ready to work, no front weight yet

DSCF1098.jpg Hard to see IH emblem from an old 1300 truck I had once and exhaust

DSCF1102.jpg 9 gallons of windshield washer fluid in each tire

DSCF1105.jpg Modular front weight bracket here and below,made from scrap and the rear tail of an old mower mule

Weight we used on the 560s when we plowed with them back in the day. Not bolted down yet. Bolts long enough for two weights, don't think I'll need it.

That's what needed, if I had only looked a little harder. I should've known the info I needed was on this site.

Thanks for the feedback and your help.

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.
