Default Cub 124 turning radius
Bought a Cub 124 over the winter. Started mowing with it this week. Notice that the turning radius is great when you turn left (almost turns too hard), but when you turn right you need a cornfield to make the turn: the wheels barely turn. Is that normal? Is something connected wrong in the steering box? Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks Cubby. Is there a FAQ or a service bulletin I can look at?

You disconnect the Drag link from the bottom of the Steering Column. You count the turns from R to L (or vice versa). Bring the Steering wheel to "mid point". Make sure the front wheels are straight forward. Then adjust the drag link to connect back up to the steering column. Wa-la...you are done.

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.
