2145
Looking for some ideas. My wife uses the 2145 hydro to mow with and I don't like the way it mows. It does not cut good at all on the discharge side. It leaves almost a strip of grass that makes you think the belt is not turning the spindle. Now I must tell you that we mow about as high as the deck will go. I put new blades, OEM gator type, on it and it did not change anything. I have looked high and low and I can not see any adjustments on the deck except for the scalp wheels. Any body have thoughts?

The higher the deck more ragged cut you will have as the cut grass and air will likely bend over the grass on the exit side especially if the grass cover is light.
Slow down, lower the deck and if the problem persists look at the deck belt. Suggest cutting at 2.5-3" - if it still cuts lousy you have a deck problem. |

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.
