Married to my 109 and snowthrower now !
Okay, I did it. We got 5 inches of snow the other night and used my 109 and 42a snowthrower for the first time! Have a long steep driveway and it went up and down like a champ. Thanks to all you who helped me get it on and adjusted and such. I did the driveway in about 15 minutes and had so much fun I did my neighbors steep drive down the road!
Everytime something happened I recalled all that you guys have said here in various posts, i.e. Starting it up...let it run and bit and it would not move. I freaked and thought something broke in the hydro. Remembered one of y'all said let it WARM up. So a few minutes later, it worked just fine. I need a hydraulic lift! That manual one makes it awfully hard to lift that honkin' blower up! I need to do the ezglide next. Whats the best way to sand that chute? Thanks for the advice on how to hit the snow. You do have to "engage" the snow until it lugs a bit and then find that sweet spot and man does it go then! wet snow down at the bottom of the hill where the plow was makes it just kind of "vomit" out of the blower. Need to work on that. Chain oil--is motorcycle chain oil good enough? How frequently do you guys lube all the fittings? Man, this is such an amazing machine. I have a respectful fear of it that I know will get better, but with one hand on the hydro lever all the time, the right hand has to be quick and connected to the brain ! Thanks all ! I'll try and get a pic or two up. Oh one more dumb question. Does a plow work as good as that blower? If you could have only one, which would you go with? Carl

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.
