Default 1440 CCC Storage

Went down to the barn today to get my 1440 out of winter storage,took some air and fresh 93 octane,batt was still hot and fired right up. Drove it to the shop and installed a correct plastic grille new from Patton Acres. Got to pull the deck and do some maint. plus fresh oil & filter. Tractor has 580 hrs. and is very good on fuel plus a good ride. If I find a set of deck/pulley covers she will be complete!

I stopped at a yard sale last summer and they had two of these tube grille guards NOS for a Craftsman SGT. I gave $10 for both and sold one on ebay that brought $50! Had to cut original mount and weld angle iron with the holes already drilled. Two bolts to mount and remove like offered as a option but a little more beffy built to help protect the plastic.

My lord, that is the nicest 1440 I have ever seen. Puts mine to shame! I agree with you, these are really fuel efficient. I havent filled mine up since early January, and I've probably worked it 15 hours.

I have to echo these guys in saying that is one nice ride!

My Grandmother in law has one, but it has been beat to death. Not sure I would even want it.

I would love to have a grille guard like that for my 2284. Really makes the tractor look stout.

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.
