Default Setting the governor K301
I have tried to set the governor several times on my 127 it never seemed to act right and after looking at how the governor gear is designed I realized that it's possible when the weights are vertically aligned it may not set easily after turning the engine over by hand while setting the governor shaft made all the difference it now holds rpm perfectly. Just wanted to share thanks

I've never had any kind of issues at all setting a governor. No matter what position the weights are in..... Perhaps your gear needs replaced?

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.
