Default Cadet 80

I have a cadet 80 and need to know what type of hydrostatic oil to use and how much to put in it. When I got the tractor it was full to the cap, and after warming it up it would stop pulling it self. Any help would be great.

thanks

You really wont get a whole lot of speed out of that thing. Get a gear driven lawn tractor and alot more can be done.....I used to play with 'll junk LTs when I was younger and I to my early teens (couldn't afford a quad) those are the best to use. Old Murray's and craftsmanship were our usual finds. Most can be had pretty cheap without decks. I wouldn't tear up that 80 for it

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.
