Default Forward speed

Hi Guys,

I'm new to the site. I have a 3206. I recently had the head and valves replaced. When I got it back from shop, I noticed the mower ran slower in forward and faster in reverse. I'm sure you have posts on how to adjust it, but cant seem to find them? any help.

I can't understand how engine work would have anything to do with the change in speed but I have never worked on a 3206. You may want to ask the shop what they did. Other wise you may need to see what is going on with the linkage. This is a pic of the trans controls from the Cub parts site.

Default slow forward

I dont think the engine work had anything to do with the speed. Maybe they loosened something working on it. If i pull the forward pedal i get full reverse. when i push the forward petal it collapses about 2 inches before it bites, but cant see wiere anything is loose?

My guess is the linkage is out of adjustment.

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.
