1572 Battery

Hi All,
Can anyone tell what size and type of battery I will need for my 1572.
It currently does not have one. Is there any that are better than others?

Thank you,
Mike

I learned cheap, low CCA batteries are not your friend!!

My 1872 almost lost a starter before I got a good battery. I buy DEKA now.

I would only get the highest CCA battery that will fit in it, especially a diesel!!

Mines got a Briggs n Stratton 450CCA. I have no problems. I do keep a battery tender on it all the time also.

Thanks DWayne,

I found a brochure with the factory folder formmy 1872, and it has all the battery sizes and measurements far all cub tractors. It calls for a stud type terminal. Is your BS a stud or standard GTmtype terminal?

Thanks Mike

Top post style.

Make sure to use post covers to protect the hood.

Doing the starter conversion for diesels will also help out with the battery issues.

I'd like to see that document, do you have it in electronic form? I need to figure out what's the biggest battery with the most amps I can put in the 1450 and 1650.

1572 Battery

Hi All,
I went with the Deka battery. Installed last night, the tractor has the gear reduction starter on it and it starts with no problem. I did put the rubber terminal covers on it though as they did seam pretty close to the hood. The battery chart does not cover the older models, on from the 80's era.
Thanks again,
Mike
