Make sure you clean out the hex in the set screws so the allen/hex wrench fits all the way in. You will need a 1/8" allen wrench. I highly suggest only using a high quality set because is you round them off with a cheap set, you will have a difficult time drilling out the set screws.

Also, there are TWO set screws in each hole ( six total )

I looked at the manual. There are two set screw in each hole then? I noted some of these holes seem off to me. Or is it correct in how they are? Will be difficult trying to get anything down the set screw holes:

And what about this bigger hole in the third pic?

You have to disengage the PTO and rotate it around to line the holes up. Hopefully it still moves. Tap the button on the PTO with a hammer and see if you can get it to spin.

As Maxwelhse wrote, tap on the PTO button while you have your hand putting pressure to turn the PTO. Each tap should get you a little bit of movement. You'll be done tapping when the PTO holes line up with the cutouts in the basket.

The arm will be fine for the brass button

hi all,

I didn't get a chance to work on it until today(had been working on the 1650 project).

On the good news I was able to tap on the pto button and turn the clutch so that all holes now line up.!

Do the hex screws come out or do they just loosen? I am turning counter-clockwise and they just tighten up. I didn't want to continue pressure on it until I asked your guys. LOL

Thanks for the help
-Nathan

There are two in each hole. The top one has to come out to get to the bottom one.

Mine tightened as I backed them because the PO had brush painted the tractor and filled the holes with paint.

Exactly. Exposed threads get rusted and aren't very friendly. Use plenty of pb and work them back and forth very slowly and they will come out. A 1/4 x 20 bottoming tap might help if they are too boogered up

looks like you just need to replace the button on the linkage arm that presses against the pto when you engage it
you don't have to remove the pto to replace that

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.
