Just got a 129 Drive lever adjustment?
I just bought my "new" 129 hydro home and I love it
It has a new engine a real nice deck (looks new) got a plow and a snow blower. has Hydro option I do have one problem when I engage the drive it tend to keep "pushing" the lever up and if I don't watch it I end up going alot faster than I want. I've seen the pivot for the drive lever and I'm wondering if I tighten it up the friction will keep the lever in place. Or is there another adjustment Other than that its the best.... I haven't figured out how to use the rear hydro lift yet but I suppose I'll have to read the instructions I also got a "parts" 129 that I was told the engine was stuck. I spent an hour and got it running great. The differential was spot on. no hydro option on the spare. good compression and all. I'll have to get a gen/starter for it but hell two for the price of one. (the second will need a hood and grill) But came with a deck and plow so 2 plows 2 decks and one snowblower life is soooo good $750 If I got a deal please say so... If not then say nothing cause it's making me real happy and I'm glad I spent the money I ordered up some paint and I'll be spiffing everything up. I had a MTD build 13.5 hp that died so I bought this on a lark now that I have it I wonder why they call the MTD a tractor. This is a tractor!! thanks joe

proudhon,
  Sounds like you got a great deal!  There is another adjustment to tighten the hydro lever up. If you look in the technical area you will find the service manual for your Cub. If you cant find it let us know. But its a simple adjustment the manual has picture of it. Again sounds like you got a great deal. Post some pictures if you can.

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.
