Cub Cadet
SLOPE OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and tipover accidents which can result in severe injury or death. All
slopes require extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope
or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.
For your safety, use the slope gauge included as part of this
manual to measure slopes before operating this unit on a
sloped or hilly area. If the slope is greater than 15 degrees as
shown on the slope gauge, do not operate this unit on that
area or serious injury could result.
DO:
1.Mow up and down slopes, not across. Exercise extreme
caution when changing direction on slopes.
2.Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden
objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine. Tall
grass can hide obstacles.
3.Use slow speed. Choose a low enough speed setting so
that you will not have to stop while on the slope. Tires
may lose traction on slopes even though the brakes are
functioning properly. Always keep machine in gear when
going down slopes to take advantage of engine braking
action.
4.Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for wheel
weights or counterweights to improve stability.
5.Use extra care with grass catchers or other attachments.
These can change the stability of the machine.
6.Keep all movement on the slopes slow and gradual. Do
not make sudden changes in speed or direction. Rapid
engagement or braking could cause the front of the
machine to lift and rapidly flip over backwards which
could cause serious injury.
7.Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction,
disengage the blade(s) and proceed slowly straight down
the slope.
DO NOT:
1.Do not turn on slopes unless necessary; then, turn slowly
and gradually downhill, if possible.
2.Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or embankments.
The mower could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over the
edge of a cliff, ditch, or if an edge caves in.
3.Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on
the ground.
4.Do not use a grass catcher on steep slopes.
5.Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause
sliding.
6.Do not coast downhill. Over-speeding may cause the
operator to lose control of the machine resulting in
serious injury or death.
7.Do not tow heavy pull behind attachments (e.g. loaded
dump cart, lawn roller, etc.) on slopes greater than 5
degrees. When going down hill, the extra weight tends to
push the tractor and may cause you to loose control. (e.g.
tractor may speed up, braking and steering ability are
reduced, attachment may jack-knife and cause tractor to
overturn).
CHILDREN
1.Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to
the presence of children. Children are often attracted to
the machine and the mowing activity. They do not
understand the dangers. Never assume that children will
remain where you last saw them.
a. Keep children out of the mowing area and in
watchful care of a responsible adult other than the
operator.
b. Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters the
area.
c. Before and while backing, look behind and down
for small children.
d. Never carry children, even with the blade(s) shut
off. They may fall off and be seriously injured or
interfere with safe machine operation.
e. Use extreme care when approaching blind
corners, doorways, shrubs, trees or other objects
that may block your vision of a child who may run
into the machine.
f.Disengage the cutting blade(s) before traveling in
reverse. The “No-Cut-In Reverse” feature is a
reminder not to cut in reverse and to help avoid
back over accidents. Do not defeat it.
g. Keep children away from hot or running engines.
They can suffer burns from a hot muffler.
h. Remove key when machine is unattended to
prevent unauthorized operation.
9.Never allow children under 14 years old to operate the
machine. Children 14 years old and over should read and
understand the operation instructions and safety rules in
this manual and should be trained and supervised by a
parent.
TOWING
1.Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for
towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the
hitch point.
2.Follow the manufacturers recommendation for weight
limits for towed equipment and towing on slopes.
3.Never allow children or others in or on towed equipment.
4.On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may cause
loss of traction and loss of control.
5.Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.
6.Do not coast downhill.

SERVICE
SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE:
1.To avoid personal injury or property damage use
extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is
extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.
Serious personal injury can occur when gasoline is
spilled on yourself or your clothes which can ignite. Wash
your skin and change clothes immediately.
a. Use only an approved gasoline container.
b. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck
or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place
containers on the ground away from your vehicle
before filling.
c. When practical, remove gas-powered equipment
from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground.
If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment
on a trailer with a portable container, rather than
from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
d. Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel
tank or container opening at all times until fueling
is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open
device.
e. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other
sources of ignition.
f.Never fuel machine indoors.
g. Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the
engine is hot or running. Allow engine to cool at
least two minutes before refueling.
h. Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than
three inches below the top of the filler neck to
allow space for fuel expansion.
i.Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.
j.If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and
equipment. Move unit to another area. Wait 5
minutes before starting the engine.
k. To reduce fire hazards, keep machine free of
grass, leaves, or other debris build-up. Clean up
oil or fuel spillage and remove any fuel soaked
debris.
l.Never store the machine or fuel container inside
where there is an open flame, spark or pilot light
as on a water heater, space heater, furnace,
clothes dryer or other gas appliances.
m. Allow a machine to cool at least five minutes
before storing.
GENERAL SERVICE:
1.Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated
area. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an
odorless, and deadly gas.
2.Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make certain
the blade(s) and all moving parts have stopped.
Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground against the
engine to prevent unintended starting.
3.Periodically check to make sure the blades come to
complete stop within approximately (5) five seconds after
operating the blade disengagement control. If the blades
do not stop within the this time frame, your unit should be
serviced professionally by an authorized
dealer.
4.Check brake operation frequently as it is subjected to
wear during normal operation. Adjust and service as
required.
5.Check the blade(s) and engine mounting bolts at
frequent intervals for proper tightness. Also, visually
inspect blade(s) for damage (e.g., excessive wear, bent,
cracked).
Replace the blade(s) with the original equipment
manufacturer’s (O.E.M.) blade(s) only, listed in this
manual. “Use of parts which do not meet the original
equipment specifications may lead to improper
performance and compromise safety!”
6.Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear gloves,
and use extra caution when servicing them.
7.Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the
equipment is in safe working condition.
8.Never tamper with the safety interlock system or other
safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly.
9.After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, disconnect
the spark plug wire(s) and ground against the engine.
Thoroughly inspect the machine for any damage. Repair
the damage before starting and operating.
10. Never attempt to make adjustments or repairs to the
machine while the engine is running.
11. Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed the engine. The governor controls the maximum
safe operating speed of the engine.
12. Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as
necessary.
13. Observe proper disposal laws and regulations for gas,
oil, etc. to protect the environment.
14. Grass catcher components and the discharge cover are
subject to wear and damage which could expose moving
parts or allow objects to be thrown. For safety protection,
frequently check components and replace immediately
with original equipment manufacturer’s (O.E.M.) parts
only, listed in this manual. “Use of parts which do not
meet the original equipment specifications may lead to
improper performance and compromise safety!”

WARNING: Plan your mowing pattern to
avoid discharge of materials toward roads,
sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also,
avoid discharging material against a wall or
obstruction which may cause discharged
material to ricochet back toward the operator.
•Do not mow at high ground speed, especially if a
mulch kit or grass collector is installed.
•For best results it is recommended that the first two
laps be cut with the discharge thrown towards the
center. After the first two laps, reverse the direction
to throw the discharge to the outside for the
balance of cutting. This will give a better
appearance to the lawn.
•Do not cut the grass too short. Short grass invites
weed growth and yellows quickly in dry weather.
•Mowing should always be done with the engine at
full throttle.
•Under heavier conditions it may be necessary to go
back over the cut area a second time to get a clean
cut.
•Do NOT attempt to mow heavy brush and weeds
and extremely tall grass. Your tractor is designed to
mow lawns, NOT clear brush.
•Keep the blades sharp and replace the blades
when worn. Refer to Cutting Blades on page 19 of this
manual for proper blade sharpening instructions.

Steering Adjustment
If the tractor turns tighter in one direction than the other,
or if the ball joints are being replaced due to damage or
wear, the steering drag links may need to be adjusted.
Adjust the drag links so that equal lengths are threaded
into the ball joint on the left side and the ball joint on the
right side:
•Loosen the jam nut found on the drag link at the
rear of the ball joint. See Figure 12.
•Remove the hex nut and lock washer on the top of
ball joint. See Figure 12.
NOTE:
Threading the ball joints too far onto the drag
links will cause the front tires to "toe-in" too far. Proper
toe-in is between 1/16" and 5/16".
Front tire toe-in can be measured as follows:
•Place the steering wheel in position for straight
ahead travel.
•In front of the axle, measure the distance
horizontally from the inside of the left rim to the
inside of the right rim. Note the distance.
•Behind the axle, measure the distance horizontally
from the inside of the left rim to the inside of the
right rim. Note the distance.
•The measurement taken in front of the axle should
be between 1/16" and 5/16" less than the
measurement taken behind the axle.
•Adjust if necessary.

To change or replace the drive belt on your tractor,
proceed as follows:
•Remove the cutting deck as instructed earlier in this
section.
•After disconnecting the battery cables, remove the
battery and battery tray from beneath the seat.
IMPORTANT:
When removing the battery, disconnect
the NEGATIVE (Black) wire from it’s terminal first,
followed by the POSITIVE (Red) wire. Re-install in
reverse order.

IMPORTANT:
Note the routing of the lower drive belt
around all the pulleys and the belt keepers (if present)
BEFORE performing the following steps.
•Locate the fixed v-idler pulley found on the left
underside of the frame. See Figure 20.
•Grasp the belt on both sides of the pulley and
gently move it toward the left frame rail allowing it to
unseat itself from the fixed v-idler. See Figure 20.
•Pivot the double-idler bracket forward slightly
before removing the idler extension spring from the
stud and the double-idler bracket itself. Do NOT
discard the spring.
•Roll the drive belt out from around both the v-idler
pulley and the flat idler pulley found on the doubleidler bracket.
•Carefully unplug the tractor’s wire harness from the
connector on the electric PTO clutch.
•Note the orientation of the electric PTO clutch.
Remove the hex bolt from the center of the electric
PTO clutch and gently lower it off of the engine
crankshaft.
•Be careful not to lose any washers or spacers
which may be found on top of the electric PTO
clutch.
•The engine pulley is located directly above the
electric PTO clutch. Lower the engine pulley far
enough to be able to remove the upper drive belt
from around it.
IMPORTANT:
When remounting the electric PTO clutch,
make certain that is properly oriented against the antirotation bracke prior to securing it to the engine’s
crankshaft. Torque the center hex bolt to between 38
foot-pounds and 50 foot-pounds.
•Remove the drive belt by feeding it from front to
rear, toward the hydrostatic transmission. See
Figure 20.
•Continue removing the drive belt by gently lifting it
off of the transmission pulley and over the cooling
fan.
IMPORTANT:
The fins on the cooling fan are only slightly
flexible. Be careful not to damage the fan when
removing the drive belt from around the transmission
pulley.
•Reroute the new belt around the pulleys and belt
keepers, if present, EXACTLY as the old one was
routed. Refer to Figure 20.
