My neighbor recently bought a 1250. He replaced the rear engine mounts with neoprene bushings bought at Napa auto. The engine runs great at idle but when the throttle is increased to max there is a bad vibration that seems to be coming from the rear part of the tractor. He said the vibration was there before replacement but it was not quite as bad as now. The drive shaft was removed to install a new fan, but shaft appears to be straight and true when running. One blade broke off the fan during installation, Any suggestions? Also one other question it is really easy to move the tractor with the engine off... just push or pull and the rear wheels roll, Is that normal for a hydro?

I would look at the Flex Disc(s) and the Coupler Bushing(s) at both ends of the drive shaft.

You can move the tractor a short distance, slowly, but towing or moving a long distance can damage the hydro, engine or no engine.
Vibration, i.e., tractor shaking could be the other iso mounts, or the driveshaft. If you remove the tunnel cover and run the engine, you might be able to see what is shaking.

Thanks for the replies... Running on high throttle with the tunnel cover off the shaft looks smooth, don't see any wobble. Maybe will try running with drive shaft removed. I'm not sure if he replaced the other mounts. I do believe he had the rag joints apart.... I will check them again

He said something about the ballance gears being removed from the engine to prevent future damage from failure? Im not sure what these gears do?

the balance gears were more for at idle low engine speed vibrations. there's little to no difference WOT. you could have the new relief valves with out the button. then they roll pretty easy right away. like the others have suggested I'd be looking at the driveshaft rag joints and couplers. they see allot of wear and damage from running with bad mounts when everything is out of alignment.

Hi, Burgy Here..
It's my unit, I pulled the urethane bushings out this morning. puting the old ones back in using the best ones in the rear and bottom. The vibration is all but gone, will get new mounts when it starts acting up again. The next issue is the fuel tank/plastic/ PO must have cracked it and tried to fix with not so good stuff. Guess I will have to find another one. Thanks |

Did you say ONE blade, broke off the fan? Could be part of the problem.

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.
