Default Deck Lift Spool Valve Question
Since I haven't had a hydraulic lift on my previous Cub the deck lift feels a little sticky and I'm wondering if the valve should be self centering, is there a cure or cleaning I can do to resolve this issue? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

YES, the valve is self centering. I spray some PB Blaster on the Spool Valve control shaft and makes my SV work real good.

I have the same issue with my 1450 dual hydo to the point where I have broken 2 spring pins on the solid inner handle. Is there any way to clean the valves out or otherwise correct the sticking?

Take it off, disassemble it, clean it, install new o-rings, sand the rust off the spool, put it together and back in.

Will def start there. Thanks.....I am not too familiar with hydraulics and was unsure what to expect when I took the spool apart. Excellent project for a beautiful day.

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.
