The very first time I put a rebuild PTO on my 147 I destroyed the fiber button that I had installed. I kept tightening and tightening the turnbuckle and the PTO kept spinning till the fiber button exploded, and would never disengage. Back to the drawing board....
I learned that I had to have resistance on it to adjust it. (In my case, a mower deck.) I install that, and with the engine running, I get the button close, check the disengage, and keep adjusting on the turnbuckle by 1/4 turn till I find the spot where it'll disengage but doesn't require a whole lot of pulling of the lever. Never did consult the manual on spacing when engaged. That did the trick.

Hmmmm
Funny thing i have adjusted tons of those simply by eye... and never had a problem. And i think this is the 2nd one that i heard was hitting the crank when pulled in. And i always use the same tool to adjust them also. I guess maybe i will have to write up some adjusting instructions that counter-dick the manual.

I don't think it is how you adjusted the clutch Dave. My old pto was fine until I adjusted the wear button to the 1/64th spec in the manual. It rubbed immediately after that and destroyed my pto. The new one did the same thing but I was able to catch it in time.

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.
