Cub Cadet 1330 Drive Problem
 

I have 2 Cub Cadet 1330's with Hydro Drive problems. One went out last year & the other a couple of days ago. Belts are fine. I pulled them both and opened the trans-axle housings. One has a busted Differential Housing Assembly (Part #717-0777) which is a repair I have had to make before, but the other trans-axle appears to be in good working condition. All the gears, splines, etc... are in good condition. I also pulled the Hydro Pump off the trans-axle and checked the splines between the pump & trans-axle & they also look fine. With the unit reassembled, I can turn the drive belt pulley and engage the forward/reverse lever and the axles do engage & turn. Any suggestions? :bigthink:

Number 12 (red arrow) is a filter, looks like you remove #9 to get at it. Maybe it’s plugged.

Thanks Sam Mac! I will try that!

I want you to understand that I have never worked on this model. I suggest that you get the service manual for it. Here is some more info
