Default Hydrostatic Drive Bypass Control

I recently came into a 1650 Hydro Serial #2050670U621001, where is the bypass control. what exactly does pushing do and how much is ok, is it cumulative or can you slowly push then take a break?
Excuse the stupid questions but..... did I say I was new here?
Anyway thanks in advance.

More commonly called a hydro release lever....I could be wrong but I thought a 1650 had automatic relief valves so it negated the need for one of these. HOWEVER, it's made so you can tow a hydrostatic cub cadet for NOT VERY FAR or VERY FAST. Like I need it to move 6' in the garage to get at XYZ behind it but don't want to start it up for that.



Welcome to the site! PS I'm from Livonia- whereabout are you?

Your 1650 was built in December of 1977. It is on the cusp when IH switched to automatic relief valves. If your tractor does NOT have the release lever on the right hand side of the tunnel cover (see pic 2), then, most likely, it has the automatic release valves. These valves automatically bleed off pressure shortly after the engine is shut off. To verify remove the tunnel cover and look at the valves...if they are taller with no push button in the center, then they are the automatic ones. Otherwise, the lever is necessary to push it. Tall valve on the right (see 1st pic) is the automatic one. Release lever for manual release models.

I'll add:
tow @ the speed & distance a toddler moves.
They don't go far or fast.
If you break down in the yard, pushing it to your garage by hand will not hurt it.
If you tow it to your friends house with your vehicle, it's a good bet you will cause extensive damage to the hydro.
Hope we answered your question sufficiently.
And also, welcome to OCC.

I'll add that there should be a metal flapper on the underside of the tunnel if you have manual valves. If that's missing the lever is useless. Then you gotta push them down by hand. As mentioned, you may have either. I have an early 1650 with manual valves and lever, but no flapper. It's a fun one to push

I have several with the flapper broke off. I use a magnet on top of the valves
to hold them down. Other than having to remove the tunnel cover, it’s quick and works great.

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.
