Cw-36
Hi everybody, new here. I have a 100 that I bought off my uncle. He blew up the 10hp and replaced it with a 12hp (as my cousin stated, "he learned the hard way not to mess with the throttle adjustments because he wants to throw the snow further"..
 )Anyways, I have the deck, a plow and a CW-36 blower for the thing. I have taken off the deck (I used it for a few years to mow grass but the 7 year old Craftsman does such a prettier job - and faster). I tried plowing but not much luck with that - seemed the plow wanted to "ride up" once any sort of track was made in the snow prior to plowing. Plus the machine doesn't have enough weight yet except my 190 lbs to give it enough traction to run the plow. So, I put the blower on last year but never got a chance to try it. Last weekend I did. With approx. 24-30 inches of snow, I knew I wasn't shoveling anymore. So, after two different batteries that were found to be completely shot and wouldn't take a charge from the charger, I was pulling the battery from my car to run the cubby and taking the carb off to release a stuck needle... At last, it fired up and I got my initiation with running a snow blower. It seemed to do rather well for the depth - although it would cause the belt to slip on occasion plus many times the chute clogged. It was using this implement that I realized how nice it would be to have the creeper option. My question - is there improvements that can be made to this blower to allow it to handle large quantities of snow a little easier? Anybody modify the chute to help reduce clogging? Any tips / tricks?

Keep the thrower as full as Hp will allow, if the chute is rusty, when it polishes up it will throw better.
Some ppl use "slip kote" paint ( Graphite ingredient) avail @ TSC or "Pam" baking spray on the chute. I run mine shiny bare steel and coat it with grease before storage.

How are the auger bearings ? Are they the original ones ? If so change them out to the newer style and i will actually improve throwing. Also a creeper gear seems to help for the manual transmissions. I have a smaller sheave for the thrower but mine actually throws snow so well I havent ever changed it. I dont use any special paints or cooking spray but I hear they do help ? Just watch how fast you feed the thrower....I have the Cw-36 as well and seems to work really good for me.

What I've done is clean all the rust off with a wire brush or wheel seemed to work better, sanded smooth, then clean and dry good. Spray with 1-3 coats of slip plate aerosol, I used and would recommend a CNH product 407408R1. I did this three years ago in Feb. and now just starting to see a bit of the area where the slip plate is rubbing off, chipping from ice or other debris. Nice thing is I don't worry about it rusting up. The other thing is keep chain lubed and bearings and knuckles greased, belt tight.

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.
