Default Kohler Powered

If it's Kohler, it's got to be good, right?

Picked up this little welder this week. Bought it from the original owner. He bought it new in '82.

Electric start fires it right off. Idles nice and runs smooth at 3700 rpm. As a bonus it came with the original spark plug and air filter. Still installed!

Looks like the head gasket's still doing it's job too!

Must be running just a touch slow if your only getting 58 HZ.

That's what I was thinking Sam. Figured I'd play with the rpm and see how that changed things.

Thanks for the input.

Thanks Terry, I appreciate the information. The vibratach is not super a accurate so I can probably crank up the rpm and still be in the proper range. The killawatt meter is probably not the most accurate either...

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.
