Greetings From Central PA (next to the staple)
Hello All,
I've been visiting this site for some time. There seems to be a bunch of good ol' boys with a vast wealth of knowledge on these little machines here. I hope to be an asset to the group. Currently I have a 73 with just a deck, two 1650's, and an International Cub 154 with just a deck. Attachments for the 1650's include two decks (one rough), two roto tillers (again one is rough), two snow throwers (yet again - ones kinda rough), one snow plow with the hydro angle and one with manual angle, one lawn roller, wheel weights and chains. The 1650 with the hydro up front for the blade also has the pressure release valves to push the machine a few feet. That has really come in handy. I bought the first 1650 recently and in short order it needed lots of attention. The last owner had the motor rebuilt and when he reinstalled it, the installation wasn't done right which led to failures. He's not the one that did the rebuild but I still have concerns with that as it smokes badly at start-up. I spent most of last week working out what I could with the donor tractor. I still need to change the fluids and filters as well as all regular maintenance since I don't know what was neglected. I've put on a new condenser, set of point, coil, etc. I had to swap the front PTO, starter solenoid, oil fill tube, and a few other little parts but fortunately I didn't have to go inside the other motor. Once I get this 1650 squared away I hope to repair the donor. I'm not planning on it just going for parts but with all I needed it was just easier to by a donor and have what I needed on hand. I've the paint already but it is starting to look like I may have to wait till spring to paint in my unheated garage. I am looking to get it in as good condition as I can for winter (load tires and all maintenance including attachments) before worrying about paint. Well, I suppose that is enough for now. Curt |

Thanks for the warm welcome.
Finally got a pic to post. More will follow when life doesn't get in the way. Managed to get several pics - none turned out well - but they all need reformatted and resized to post. Anyway, thanks for the warm welcome.

Thanks Allen. It's not as nice as one may think from the pic. It is very hard to start in the cold. I suspect the compression release. It runs very well when it's warmed up.
I blew my back out then when I was about over it I managed to get my ribs busted up in a fall on this cub's steering wheel so I have not been able to get much done with the cubs. I did get the tires of this 1650 loaded and chained and picked up an Original. I'm not sure what I'll do about the snow removal with this not wanting to start in cold weather. Everything I have for snow fits the wide frame. Here is a pic of the rear of the 1650 I got to rob parts from for now. |

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.
