PTO Switch
AARRRGGHHHH.
IH 582 PTO Expertise Needed I turned off my PTO switch, made a quick path around the garden and then completely lost my PTO.  The amp guage moves to the left a little when I hit the switch, but the blades do not turn. I physichally moved the blades, wiggled wires, checked belt tension (quite tight). It simply stopped working! Any Ideas?

I'm not that familiar with the 582 but it could be a bad switch, fuse, or the air gap setting on the pto could need adjusted. If the gap is borderline too big, the heat from mowing for awhile will increase the gap and when you go to turn the pto back on, it won't turn on. I've had that happen on a 682.

Great! I will give that air gap setting a try. I found the diagram, but your experience helps it make more sense.
If it were the switch or the fuse, wouldn't the amp meter remain the same when I flip the switch? Can anyone tell me where the fuse is? Thanks for the advice!

Derek If your fuse was blown, or the switch not making a connection, or the wire to the coil open your amp gauge would not move.
If your wire to the coil was shorted the amp gauge would probably peg momentary and then the fuse would blow. Since your amp gauge is moving when you flip the switch the coil is probably good and the air gap is off. If you make the air gap adjustment and it still doesn't work then you need to dig deeper and probably start by checking the resistance of the coil.

The PTO diagram is very helpful, but I would probably add a note to it stating that the brake flange has been omitted for clarity. The first time you look at the magnetic clutch it's not immediately clear where the gap needs to be. It took me a few minutes to understand that the gap is not between the brake flange and the driven disk.

Success!
The gap was much greater. Probably a result of my pulling the motor to replace the clutch. Thank you all for the help !!!

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.
