1863 followed me home
Good runner, mows very nice until..
So I'm making a lap around the place, giving it a shakedown and I hear this awful sound. The closest thing I can think of would be a dried rusty ball bearing spinning; not a grind but more like a screech or a howl. The sound lasted about a full second. I turn the deck off and head to the shop thinking it's an idler but then it makes the sound again, but only for a split second. The sound sounds like it's coming from the driveshaft/hydro area. I'll dig in there tomorrow to see if there's something tangled up there. Other than that, she runs really nice, plastics have some scratches but no cracks or breaks. Headlights even work! Hour meter is showing about 330 hours, some things make me feel it's accurate, some not so much.

My 1811 with hydro screeches when I start the engine and screeches when the engine stops. I suspect the sound is from the hydro but I did replace the fluid and filter. Maybe my issue is similar to yours. I'm interested in what you learn.

While you have the driveshaft cover removed for a look, might as well remove the driveshaft. Disassemble, clean, inspect and grease the CV joints. A few squirts in the zerks probably won't help much if never serviced.
The PTO bearing will screech. Use an impact air wrench to remove the bolt at the crankshaft. A fine pick will remove the seal to allow the bearing to be greased. Use a high temp grease.

I used a needle adapter for a grease gun to grease sealed PTO and idler bearings.

Can someone lead me to how to get the release knob off to take the drives shaft cover off? I pulled and twisted and it just laughed at me.
Loose bolts everywhere on this thing, all four of the rear-end mounting bolts were loose, luckily no stripped threads. Found a bent brake rod too, possibly because of the loose bolt.

Adjustable wrench on the flat part of the rod and pliers on the knob. Check the front tranny mounts also.

Thank you Sam, that worked perfectly. And I found the source of the noise: It's the lever for the safety switch rubbing on the driveshaft. I also found a minor leak at the relief valve block, so I'm going to pull the fender and fix, adjust, clean, and tighten everything under there and should be gtg.

While you have the fender off, pull the fuel tank clean it out and all of the crud on top of the tranny. Pull the fuel shut off valves, clean them out or replace them, new fuel tank bushings and new fuel hose. You'll be glad you did.

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.
