Default Hyd Lift Valve

Switched out the M18 for a CH18 in the 1862 with a 451 blower, works nice.

What caused the lift valve to want to stay open when lifting the blower? O ring sticking? Internal spring too weak? The one on my mowing tractor does the same thing periodically.

Thanks,

Ike

I have a tractor the valve hangs on, either up or down. I have no idea what the problem is. I just make sure I center it when I get the emplement where I want it. Too much trouble to play Dick Tracy.

The lift valve sticks in the up (lift) position. Must be pushed down once the blower is raised.

Thanks Ike

I think my Cyclops valve sticks in both directions but I don't remember. The valve is probably just gummed up inside around the O rings.

On my 1541 the plastic valve handle was up against the plastic dash. It was only a problem in the cold. Did a little sanding and everything is fine.

The valve on my ex cyclops 1641 will stick in either position. Its always been like that. The previous owner of that machine said the valve always stuck. I will just say IMO it is poorly designed. Not a one of my 82 series machines with hydraulics stick.

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.
