The manual calls for high quality detergent 30wt oil, not non detergent.

I am checking the big box stores I would like to get some kohler 30wt. I like things to be right. Any one know or seen some kohler oil at a big box store? I would like to find some locally so I can stock up... I guess what I am trying to say is I seen on the technical board kohler magnum SAE-30 is recommended so that is what I would like to find.

Ok so I seen the lever actuating the throw-out button. I also noticed a grease fitting on that as well. So I guess my question is what kind of grease do I want to pump in there as well as on the spindles on the mower deck? Also how often do I need to lubricate those fittings? Any other fittings? I know of those four, three on the deck and one on the throw-out button. I seem to think there may be one on each front end tie-rod or axle? Currently don't have a grease gun so another excuse to buy more tools. |

Also final question for the evening. I know I have been bombarding with questions but I think this will get me to a good start. I certainly appreciate all the help fellas.
Is the implement handle spring loaded? I have looked at the schematics and didn't notice a spring but I did see a retention clip that my tractor is missing. So I haven't taken it all apart to see what all I might be missing besides the retention clip but the weight of the mower deck is keeping the deck locked at the desired position. See picture as follows. [IMG][/IMG] |

As someone mentioned earlier about using a 2x4 cut to a proper length will make removing blades a snap. Lodge it in someplace that will hold the blade from spinning. Check the fuel sediment bowl, possibly could need a new filter screen and gasket/ O ring. Grease all the grease points, which you'll find in the owner's manual. Tire pressures, so you'll know they're all equal, so your deck cutting height if adjusted will present a fine cut lawn... And one last thing. Please don't think of yourself as "incompetent. Think of yourself as "green horn" who just hasn't learned the ropes yet, but with time you potentially could be the guy who's answering the questions rather than asking then... And it's big around here that if you're asking about something post pictures because what you call something, may not be the same as someone else, just makes it easier for everyone involved... Keep at it, and you too could be a cub guru.

Nice looking tractor!
Check your engine oil before you start the tractor. I don't mean like every time, but like once a day. Many tractors use oil or loose oil. They will continue to run fine as long as you keep the level up. Sudden loss of oil will alert you to a problem that you can address before it's to late. Keep your air filter clean. During mowing season they get crudded up real quick. Make sure all the cooling fins on the head and block are free of debris. The little rat turd b*s-turds love to make nests in there. Check the throttle shaft on the carb. A sloppy shaft can be a cause of poor performance and lead to premature engine wear. I like to install a magnetic oil drain plug. Just a little thing to help monitor the condition of your engine. Learn to check and adjust the engine timing. Keep your battery terminals clean and make sure you have good grounds. Get a trickle charger for you battery during extended periods of non use. Shut the fuel supply off before you shut down the engine. You don't need to run it dry, just maybe 10 or 15 seconds to lower the fuel level in the float bowl a bit. Never shut down an engine from full throttle. Always bring it down to idle, wait a bit and then shut down. Add some mystery oil and fuel stabilizer to your gas. Fuel problems are one of the main issues. I think that's a start, Have fun! |

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.
