Cub Cadet 1450
Hello,
I've been lurking around for a while reading and trying to make a decision between buying an older machine or a new John Deere/Craftsman etc., yesterday I pulled the trigger and bought a new to me Cub Cadet 1450. The thing is built like a tank. Everything seems to be working well, I have one concern that maybe the Cub Cadet gurus here can help with. When I press the brake pedal the speed lever moves to N as expected,but the tractor starts to very slowly creep backwards. If I release the brake,and with the lever in the N position,the tractor does not move.Press the brake pedal all the way and it starts to creep backward again. Any advice on how to resolve this issues? TIA

 You made a good choice. You wouldn't have been satisfied with the craftsman because they are notorious for blown engines and newer john deeres are just crap, everything is made of plastic. I have a 1450 and I love the Hydraulic lift, it makes lifting heavy implements a breeze. As for the hydro I think you may just need to adjust it by taking off the inspection cover. The older hydros are know to do that. It does that on a lot of my tractors. I'm sure more people will have information to help you. You can ask any question about your tractor and someone will answer.

Welcome to the forum!
You picked a great Cub. Yes, there is an easy adjustment to the hydro "neutral" that involves loosening a couple bolts on the hydro that holds the control plate and tapping it up or down a TINY amount, like a mm (1/16 inch) to get the tractor to sit still. You need the manual in front of you, looking at the tractor, to figure it out, but it's easy once you see what needs to be done. You MIGHT, first time, take the seat and rear fenders off to do it, it will give you much better view and access. Besides, it will give you a chance to clean things up under there--stuff has a way of piling up under there!

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.
