Default Old Pump

Anyone ever seen anything like this before? This was in the attic of my grandmothers garage, found when we were cleaning out after she moved in with my aunt. It belonged to my grandfather, he passed away many years before I was born. I know he used to have a large garden. My dad said he had a David Bradley tractor with lots of attachments, but was sold years after he passed. He also thinks he may have used this pump with either his lawn mower or the DB. But no one knows for sure. It spins freely, and I’d like to try and use it, even if it’s just once. I’d guess it’s from the ‘60s. Little to no info online. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Hard to say who made that for Sears. Better lube that seal up good if it’s been sitting. I can’t tell what packing it has but have water in it before you spin it up.
Hope it still works.

Heard that! If it warms up here I will put some water to it. Gotta find something to couple it up...

The pump will need a foot valve or a check valve in the supply line because the pump will not pump air. Without water to cool and lube the seal, it won't last very long.

I'm having a terrible time uploading pictures lately. They are always "too big" even though I resize them.

Loading off the computer sometimes works better than from a link

Also, found a company “Ace pumps” are making one really similar to this one. I’m gonna send an email to see if they maybe made them for sears.

A foot valve is what goes onto the end of the hose/pipe that goes into a well.
(Most common application.) It is so the pump doesn't lose prime. He never said he was going to use it to pump water out of a well. If he uses it on a tank, or feeds it overhead it will be fine. As long as you aren't trying to suck water up a 20' column, you don't need a foot valve.



Ace pumps have been around for a long time. Don't know if they will help you or not... but they do make similar pumps.

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.
