Default Sould I be worried?
After I finished my 100 face lift last year I think I did a bad thing.
Reading since then I think I may have messed up. When I painted the tractor I painted over the vent on the diff.
I have only put maybe five hours on the tractor, didn't blow out any seals or see anything, "bad" what would be the best way to "clean or open" the vent? Or can I even clean it?
Any suggestion?
Thanks

Dab some paint stripper on the breather or use some Acetone with a Q-Tip.

The vent on a manual transmission is the gear shifter area. The bronze piece in the rear end is only on a hydro Cub Cadet.

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.
