Default 1811 Advice and Pics

So I got my Cub(first tractor period actually) yesterday and took some pics of it today. Since I'm extremely green to owning and maintaining small engine equipment, think of me as someone you guys can mold into a proper tinkerer.

I was going to put these in the thread to show your Cubs, but figured it better to make my own since I'd like to know what you guys would do if you had just purchased this Cub. Understand though that my tools are limited, but I have no ball and chain to shoot down any 'required' equipment

So here's the pics!!

Great looking 1811 and attachments, Danger! First things I would do, would be changing the engine oil and tranny fluid. You never know, when they were last changed.

VERY NICE! Looks like you done did good

As ACecil said, a complete fluid change is a must. Make sure to use Hy-Trans/Hy-trans ultra in the tranny. You just never know if the previous owner kept up on it or even used the right fluids.

Great looking 1811, and it looks to be in excellent shape too. The issues with your deck are pretty common for these. I agree with everyone else's advice....change the oil, the hy-tran and filter, lube up all the zerks on the deck as well as the steering column and spindles, some new plugs and air filter would be a good idea too if they haven't been changed in a while. Wax her up and be proud!!:biggrin2.gif:

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.
