Default Hanging brake.

Don't tell the wife, but I have completely fallen in love with my 1210 Cub. It mows and rides like a dream. As I have been using it to mow and to haul brush and whatnot around the property, I have noticed that the what I believe is the left brake has been hanging up and making a dragging sound. I know that there are some nuts and bolts that can adjusted to put more pressure on the pads and rotor, but I am unsure of what ones to start with. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

The "hanging brake" is most likely caused by a dry & rusted Pivot Arm on the Brake Caliper. Some penetrating oil (ie: PB Blaster) applied, and work it back & forth, should free that up.

Congrats on the 1210. Those 82 series are the most comfortable ride. Mike

It is awesome. I keep finding myself making excuses to get out and use it. I am trying to talk the wife into letting me buy a second cub of some sort for snow removal and garden tilling. any suggestions?

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.
