When the lever is forward and there is space between the button and the pto it is engaged. When the lever is back and the button is against the pto it is disengaged. Sometimes it is confusing.

Sounds like you need to make an adjustment on your pto linkage rod. When the pto is engaged (it should have a very slight gap from the pto button to the wear button). BTW, if you aren't running a mower deck or something that uses the front pto, it is best to run the tractor with the pto running.

The adjustment of a mechanical PTO is more feel than actual measurement. I'm assuming you have an attachment on it for resistance- like a mower or snow thrower- or the PTO will never disengage. You gotta keep checking the adjustment with the turnbuckle on the side. Put the lever in the "off (disengaged)" position and if the attachment/PTO is still turning, put the lever back to the "on (engaged)" position, shorten the distance on the rod with the turnbuckle by 1/4 a turn, then shut it off again. Keep doing this until the PTO finally disengages and you've got it right, the tighten the nut on the front side of the turnbuckle.

X2 the PTO is going to spin regardless so it's best to run it with the pto engaged so it doesn't wear out your thrust/wear buttons.

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.
