Default A Cyclops / Haban day

Cut grass today with 2 of my Haban equipped Cyclops tractors. The 1641 with the sickle bar made short work of the over grown stuff along my pond and a bunch of briers along my driveway that I can't get at with the regular mower. The 2182 did it's usual fine job on the lawn. Now it's time for a cold one and some pool time.

Sam,
What model is the sickle mower and what was involved in putting it on the cyclops?

I don't have a parking brake on this tractor so I use a wheel chock. One of these days I'll get motivated and fix it, but today is not the day.

The plastic was in such bad condition that I just decided to paint it black. I kind of liked the Yanmar/Cub look. Besides the paint only cost me $4.00 for a can of black Rustolium at Wally world.

Smurf Blue would have been better and apparently cheaper!

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.
