Default 1641 Hyd Lift

The learning curve is growin' fast.

With our "new" Cubbie, got the deck 'n hanger off. Was a pain removing the cotter pins from the two lift arms.

Duh! After removal, playing with the lift height adjuster on back of the Cub, noted had we turned the height adjust left, could have lowered the rockshaft arms below the frame. Live 'n learn!

Lowered as much as the threaded adj would go the pins are visible but only down as far as the frame (just slightly lower than the lower pan).

Is this the max low? Or, might the threaded adjustment screw we needing cleanin' or something?

The lower pan cover (or whatever it's called) is awful rust junqué. Plan to replace with new. Any source for the low pan cover piece?

If your talking about the circled item, I take them off and toss them in the scrap. To me all they do is collect clippings and then they rot. I blow the clippings out after I'm done mowing.

That's what I was thinking too. My "stuff" backs into the barn after each use. Always cleaned too, hey the grandsons got to learn to take care of the equipment.

The pan (#6) is going to scrap.

Air compressor is working overtime on this poorly kept Cubbie. There was enough built up grass, oil, dirt, to fill a bucket. All gone now.

If I was making that "thing" would've been stainless steel.

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.
