Have you checked the clearance on the pto between the disk and hub?
If the gap is to large it wont engage.

Also check the electrical connection going to the PTO it may not be connected properly. Other than that check the wire going from the switch to the PTO.

In order for the PTO to work, the tractor has to be in something other than Reverse and someone (or something) has to be in the seat to satisfy the Seat Switch. Here is an enhanced PTO circuit for your assistance. If you need or want a High Resolution image, please indicate so.

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.
