No, it's not meant to be a debate. Actually, there is no debate. 100% fact going by manufacturers recommendations. I could paste in the oil recommendation table in EVERY Kohler manual, but that's just too easy. I'm sure most already have it. Ignore it at your peril.

Oil brands, no that's a debate. This...not so much.

But, its your tractor, your money, your oil. SAE30W in -5F is completely anyone's choice. Have at it, roll the dice.

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.
