I use the leaf blower on mine after every mowing and scrape the bottom with a putty knife to remove the caked on grass. Before I put it away for the season, I scrape the bottom, use a wire brush on it, and then use an old paint brush and "paint" on some used oil on the underside of the deck. NEVER use water on it. No rust yet...

I blow my cub & deck after cutting before pulling into the garage. Helps keep the garage cleaner. After the last cutting I turn the deck over on its side power wash it, change the blades, & stow away in the garage. Happy- happy.

NIK,

I've been pressure washing mine every year since 1992. Then blow it off dry with the air compressor and paint.
No rust on mine. Also original spindle bearings.

All I know, if I don't blow the dead grass off the deck of my 100 and 124, the mice build nests in them over the winter. Mouse pee is surely corrosive!

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.
