Default Is there a filler on the steering wheel at the nut?
Just finished my 1250 restoration and putting back on the decals.

It no longer had the decal on top of the steering wheel but I remember it back when I was a kid. (Long arrowhead style matched the dimpled texture of the console)

My question is I can see the new decal sticking to the flat areas but not over the steering column nut. Was there something under the decal to smooth that area out for the decal to adhere in that area?

Nothing on my 1450.

There should have been a triangular textured piece of thin aluminum, like the dash tin, covering the center of the wheel.
The decal was secured with glue of some sort and a tiny screw.
You will find the hole for the screw at the narrow end of the wheel core where the cover fastened.

If you have the thin decal, repo, you will have to make your own triangle to stick the decal to...

I have used very thin aluminum flashing as a backer for the decal,
and used thin double-sided tape such as for holding carpet down,
to stick the back of the aluminum to the steering wheel hub.
If you need to get the steering wheel off, you can peel the aluminum off
with the decal intact and re-apply with new tape.

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.
