Default My big tractor throttle

Just wanted something different so I dreamed this up. I made my own dash tin as I didn't want to drill my good one. It fits in the bore where the Hystat control lever goes on those models, everything else is under the dash and It hooks up to a standard control cable.It works real good so far. The smudge to the right of the throttle was an accident, Ill have to touch it up.

I like it too. Can you get a pic of the bottom?
Or where did you get it from.

It was an auxiliary hydraulic shutoff valve handle on a Cat excavator boom. It was an extra one I had when I was working and I saved it for this purpose.

I have a plastic tub full of little levers and all kinds of small things, little bearings, collars, shafts ect. I call it my junk box. This is where I got the parts for the contraption from. I used a fiber friction washer to maintain the setting. I will try to take a picture.

Nifty idea! I like it! That reminds me that I'm neglecting the 8N sitting in the barn.

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.
