Hi. I just got me an old cub the other day. The guy I bought from said he was a member on here but who knows, it was off Craigslist. He said he used to pull with it. I mainly bought it for the plow but got lucky that the guy had a mower deck for it also. It's a pretty nice tractor but I've got some work to do to it. It won't go into 2nd or 3rd and I don't have any brackets for the mower deck.

Welcome to the site. Great bunch of guys here. You have a really nice looking tractor. I have no idea why it won't go into 2nd or 3rd. I notice you have a length of chain to raise and lower the plow. Originally the plow was lifted by a rod with a 90 degree bend at each end and gives a little down pressure if needed to the blade. Does your tractor have the manual Power Take Off which is mounted to the front of the engine. If so I did notice the lever which is located on the right side of the steering tower where the bracket on yours is located is missing.

Thanks everyone. The duals are pretty cool. They're probably what sold me on the tractor. They're not really practical for the snow since they're wider than the plow but still looks cool. As for the chain it's whatever the previous owner has rigged up. He said the plow is supposed to be for a craftsman lawn tractor. The brackets were bent when I got it so I just straitened them out real quick so I could push snow. For as little as ill use the blade ill probably leave the chain on it. I'm not sure on the pto. I haven't really messed with it since I got it except tightening the belt so it would start. I also noticed that bracket on the side missing the lever. Like I said he used it for the mini tractor pulls so its kinda stripped down. I think I read somewhere on here the shifters are prone to coming apart somehow. I'll figure it out whenever I can get it pulled off. I'm not sure yet if I'm going to try and get the mower deck working or not. Parts seems to be hard to find without buying another complete tractor to part out.

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.
