Default PTO adjustment woes
Just tried to readjust my pto since I found one throw out lever real loose after I shredded a wear button. I have the correct tool, but I still end up with a lever or two somewhat loose. Do you adjust one completely first then move to the next or bring them all down together as I was doing. Now the way it sets I cannot move one and have to press hard to move the other two. Am I good to go or do I take it completely apart and start over. Sorry if I'm rambling worked all night and going to bed. Thanks

I find this happening as well, over the weekend my PTO stopped working completely, I pulled the PTO unit and discovered all 3 "lock" nuts in the basket...

I go sort of back and forth with the initial nuts.. until I reach a place where the guide tool is perfect... then I attach the "lock" nuts...

I would check your springs... both the pressure plate and throw out...

You might have to creep one down a thread and then back it up..

:biggrin2.gif:Well I took everything apart and inspected it found nothing out of place. So it is all back together except I used aircraft self-locking shoulder nuts in place of stock jam nuts. I can still move all three levers, but gage says its good. It's not like they are flopping around I just don't think I should be able to move them at all. Still new to the cub cadet

I think something is amiss. Do you have a new spring (three point) for the throw out?

No, the PO rebuilt the pto so I looked at everything and all appeared good with no wear. I am not having any issues with what little I've run it, voltage took a flying leap so waiting on a new one. Will keep you posted though.

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.
