Electric PTO Switches
Merry Christmas all!
Why is the PTO switch off of my 1978 1200 different from every other PTO switch I have? Thought it would be any easy swap/fix. But, of all of the spare PTO switches I have in a box, none of them have the same terminal pattern.  The 1200 is wired for the smaller one (shown in the middle of the three). I am pretty much opposed to cutting into the original harness to make the others fit. Questions, comments, suggestions??? Thanks! Steven

You could make up short jumpers to adapt one of the other to work. Just be sure to insulate them well to keep the ends from shorting together if they get in a bind. This should only be used as a temporary fix, and should be replaced by the proper switch asap. Good luck.

Thanks guys!
I've resigned to the fact that I am better off just buying a new one that is correct for the harness. Hard to believe that I do not have the correct one on hand. I like to keep the Cubs as close to OEM as possible. Extra goodies not withstanding! Hope to dive into the 1200 by mid January. Not a difficult rehab project. Just need to replace a lot of the drive train parts. Thanks again for the input!

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.
