Snow Plow Help
I have an Original Cub that I have had since it was new and purchased in April 1962. I am looking at removing the manual adjustment from the snow plow angle and replacing it with something that could be controlled from the seat. I have looked at 12v linear actuators, but not sure what size I would need that would take the force of push and would have some speed in operation like about 1 to 2 inches per second. My Cub does not have hydraulics. Any body have any ideas or should I just stay with the manual tilt? Picture shows the snow plow I have.

I would stick with the manual adjustment, unless you by an expensive heavy duty actuator. I don't think it will take the abuse.

I would leave it as delivered just because it is worth more as factory built.

Might want to PM Tim Crutcher depending where you're at in KY. He's quite the fabricator and would possibly have some ideas. Nice Original blade btw

Thanks for the ideas. I do not want to do anything that can not be reversed without changing either the integrity or the original design of the plow. If I went with an actuator, I would design it to fit in the existing holes and bolts. Thanks again.

You could look for a different blade from an early NF and use it instead of the original one. Besides, that one looks too good to use!

I have the spring trip plow on my O, it uses the same spring pin with corresponding holes for angling as regular narrow and wide frame blades. I have been toying with the idea of attaching a cable to the spring pin to disengage it from the seat. To turn it, my idea was to use the nearest snow pile to push or pull the blade to the angle I wanted, then release the cable, letting the pin lock itself when it found the nearest hole. A little cumbersome, but better than getting on and off a dozen times.
I would think you could recreate the bar in tube adjuster that your blade has and add a cable operated, self locking pin. Then you can angle it from the seat as I described above. Follow the McMaster link for a spring pin, I don't think that specific pin will work for you, it's just to illustrate my idea. Again, I don't know if this will work in the real world, just an idea I had as I got back on the tractor for the umpteenth time.  http://www.mcmaster.com/#8498a66/=zlbp0i Bill

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.
