Default new back blade

Picked up a new to me Brinly back blade today. I didn't need it, but the price was right in the wheel house.
After we got home, I had to put it on the 147 for a test run, worked ok, I still need to do a little adjustment with it. But had a little fun.

I was looking at my driveway today while I mowed and swept and said, I need a rear blade. Glad you found one, you may use it more than you think. Great find.

Thanks guys. I think I'm going to have my buddy make me a cutting edge for it though, that will help the blade from wearying out, plus it'll add a little extra weight, help it from bouncing around so much.
Question. Should I be using the lift straps without the slots, so when I put down preasure on it, it don't jump up and down? Makes sense, but in my mind, all things that look right always aren't.

I too have a Craftsman blade that looks about tha same as that one. I put a replaceable cutting edge on mine. I used 1/4" X 3". I had one of the guys in the metal shop at work punch some square holes in it in the same spacing as on my front blade.

I like your cutting edge. That's what I'm looking to make for mine.

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.
