I also wear my motorcycle helmet now when snow throwing. No more snow in my face
I agree Jeff. What I'm stating with my comments is this: The newer models don't stand up like the older ones.

ive never had a problem with a snow plow running out of places to push. i use a 3/4 ton diesel truck and it will push until i say stop.

i had a QA42 on my 122 and it SUCKED. that spring i took it off and it went to the scrap yard. only snow plows for me.

I had my QA42 ( the same one) on my 122 and although I missed the hydro speed control, it worked fine.

You do have to run them at WOT to made them work correctly.

the problem is the drive belt on the 190-032 is too long. as a result, the belt wears, streches, slip, and fall off. And that is great in the middle of a storm. I notica all the posters here have older model tractors and implements.

I always liked my thrower, I live in the snow belt off lake Erie and it worked well, the only thing I did not like is that you are not able to scrape down the end of the driveway. The loader works great for that.

MMZULLO : "By the way I use my 149/loader and pile the snow up after the storm as long as it doesn't ice up."
When it ices up is when you have the most fun with a loader! See what happens when your board.

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.
