Default Hydro Neutral
All of a sudden the neutral position on my 1862 changed.
Now when I press the brake pedal the hydro does not go to neutral, the tractor wants to move forward a lot.
Can move the lever to where the hydro is in neutral but the lever is not at the normal neutral position.

The linkage that you can see under the tunnel cover looks normal. Maybe something on the pump has shifted??

Any thoughts?

Download the service manual, it explains how to adjust the hydro control

Take a good look at the trunnion springs, they could be shot.

Sounds like you have some missing, broken parts or it's time to rebuild the trunnion. Could be missing the trunnion spring and buttons.

Put a CH 22 in this one years ago. Been my prime mower for a long time. Won't hurt me to put a little work into it. Thanks, Ike

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.
