Default Cub Cadet 125 Shake

I know i’m posting a lot but I keep thinking of things that I could ask about. My tractor shakes quite a bit at an idle when its first starting up, not so much when its been running for a while. I have heard people say the Cubs do have a normal shake but this just seemslike a bit too much. I replaced two missing bolts on the front cast iron grill and that didnt really help. Any ideas?

Loose engine hold-down bolts are very common. Some tractors I've come across only have one or two bolts, and those are usually loose, mostly from stripped threads.

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.
