Clutch Cushioning Spring - 62 Original
As I've stated in other posts, my 62 O was a freebie that I rescued from the scrap yard. The PO stated he quit using it because a spring broke on the clutch. After looking a few times I couldn't find anything missing. Yesterday I spent a considerable amount of time removing 50 years of grease, after which I compared my clutch to the diagram in the operators manual. The only spring that looks amiss is the clutch cushioning spring. About 2 rings of it are still there, but I'm assuming it was once bigger than that. Forgive my novice ignorance, but what is the functionality of this spring? Could it alone be enough to disable the clutch? Sorry for the stupid questions, just trying to learn.

Is this and the "teaser spring" the same thing?

Yes, that is the teaser spring. It's purpose is to ease the clutch plate onto the engine drive plate without requiring a chiropractor to remove the whiplash you'll get without it. It should have about 4 coils. Replace it and you probably will be good to go... Note the grease zerk on the bearing (see lube chart in Operators Manual)..... Most don't even know its there. No grease and the clutch won't move back and forth... The Original is the only one to have this feature.

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.
