Default cub cadet 127 only 1 speed
I have a Cub Cadet 127 when I move the speed control lever (slowly) to go forward or even in reverse the tractor takes off fast and only goes 1 speed. I was wondering if there is an adjustment underneath the tractor to fix this problem? The hydro oil and filter have been changed recently.

Here's the link to the service manual it will cover the adjustments.

You made sure it is the correct filter for the transmission and not using an oil filter?

Default Cub cadet 127 hydro problem
I would check the hydro lever adjustment under the tower area. You pull the battery and then use either a crow foot or a wrench(1 and 1/16 or 1 and 1/8) tighten down until drag is just enough to hold lever . I had to make a wrench work by cutting it in half and grinding on it to fit. My cub was like a speed demon until i did this adjustment. What a difference it makes.

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.
