I haven't seen one of those for about 35 years. Used them to anywhere we couldn't get the gang mowers in. (tees, aprons, approaches). Scared the daylights out of me. Looks like its missing the lift for the rear reel.

I drove a newer version (i.e. it had belt guards) around a golf course one summer almost 20 yrs ago. It's awesome on the slopes around bunkers, tees and greens. Everyone else hated using it because it was so slow. I loved it, mow a few minutes, pull under a tree and sit while people play through, repeat. And since everyone knew how slow it was, there was never any pressure to finish and move on to actual work.

was the golf course standard for many years , I remember seeing them ( and the larger ones which looked like a tractor that went thru a bad neighborhood at night ) on our local golf course , they were going with a new fleet of toros , they sold the standards and they went quick ..good mower but you had to mow every day

Not what I was searching for. Here's one in Salem, WI. Must be the OSHA model.

thats one of the big ones ... imagine that pulling a 6-8 gang set up behind it . basically a bare basic easy to get at anything that needs to be worked on . not like working on a new toro with the covers and buried engines , 9 million hoses and pumps . that a garden Gnome complains about the tight fit .

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.
