New Guy On The Block, 1st. Timer: Long story, initial tread. Started charity gardening several years back for church kitchens, food banks, monasterys etc. but the back could not keep up with the walk behind rototillers. Garden now 500' by 100' and I have larger tractors for ground prep (plowing and tilling). I wanted a smaller tiller to cultivate the weeds between rows which I have set at 56". 2 years ago I had no IH Cub Cadets now I have 4...CC 124, (2) 129s and a 1220.
I picked up a CC 124 with a International tiller (1A-U111) and once I got the engine up to snuff and the right tiller belt (1H-487045) it works well except the 1st. gear is too fast for full throttle tilling. The CC 124 has a slot the a Creeper Gear selector handle as well as the decals top and bottom of slot: HI----LO. Shortly after, a close friend gave me his 129 with Hydra drive. It runs beautifully with full throttle yet I can barely creep along in Forward. I then communicated with a very trusted IH Dealer and subsequent strictly Cub Cadet Dealer and Service and he recommended converting my 124 with a creeper gear since in his opinion the manual tranny worked better with what i wanted to do. I was able to obtain from him a creeper gear(will provide photos) and its only markings are casting numbers 37692 stamp nos 51 L16. I have obtained a drive shaft and have modified it according to instructions and a manual from cubcadetcollectors titled "Original-Creeper". Referring to a parts lest given for the Creeper Gear,(will provide photo attachment), I am concerned that i do not have all of the connectors etc which go between the rear of the creeper assembly and the remaining shaft from the manual tranny. Anyone have a manual more oriented to a CC 124 and not older models? |

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.
