Default Relief valves

Howdy all,

i am looking to buy new automatic valves for my cub cadet 1650 and i was looking on line and i was wondering if the valves have differnt pressures that they are set too for different tractors. The valves i am looking at came from a 107. Would that make a difference.

Thank you
clifton

Are they just stuck? I read a thread on here about soaking them in PB Blaster or being careful and using a small pick to push them in. It might save a few bucks!

What is the purpose of these valves? I have the manual ones on my 1650. I pushed them down one day being inquisitive. The nipple stayed down buy piped back up when I turned the cub on.

They release the hydraulic circuit allowing the tractor to be pushed by hand

That's what I was figuring. There is a warning on the cub that says damage could result from pushing more than a couple feet or something like that. I can only push it about a foot and it stops. Do I supposed to be pushing the nipples down to be able to push the cub around?

If it is the manual type with the little rods protruding up, Yes They have to be pushed down so it can be pushed.
The auto valves do it automatically,
tow/push it no faster than a small child walks. pushing/towing it to a garage/shed from the yard will hurt nothing.
But dragging it down the block with tow vehicle @ a run will prolly do damage to the slippers on the swash plate (hydro damage)

How do they expect you to do it with thr tunnel cover on? im guessing that is why they switched to auto valves. I have the manual ones and there are no leaks around the top. i would like the ability to push the cub into teh garage but i sure dont want to take the cover off to pish in the nipples. i see that there are auto valves that have been machined for a c clip to make them user rebuiladable. does anyone have info on how to convert an auto valve so i can rebuild them. it sounds simple if its just grooved for a c clip. i have a lathe in need of a project. did 1650's ever come with automatic valves?

ETA Ok i just looked at my manual again and saw a reference to a handle that is on the right side of the tunnel that can be flipped to release the pressure. i saw some pics in the manual with them and some without. my tunnel does have a hole in it and a sticker on the side. the machine has had new decals put on it. i wonder if the PO forgot to put the handle back on?

So if i cant get a new handle, what are teh advantages and disadvantages of the automatic releif valves. i hear they take a little while to release pressure then the tractor can move on its own if the brake is not set.

If you stay with the manuals and replace the lever, make sure to get the thing metal "flapper" that actually touches the buttons. Beware of used parts, this item tends to break over time.

Seems like I can move my auto-valved Cub very soon after shutting it down.

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.
