Cyclops click when starting question
I have a question for those of you who have experienced the click and no crank problem with a cyclops. Did you notice what the starter did? I have done the gear reduction starter upgrade and didn't have this problem again until lately. The battery and cables are only 2 yrs. old and the battery is fully charged. A lot of times now when I turn the key I get a click and the drive gear on the starter is out against the ring gear, but it doesn't turn. If I tap just lightly in the area of the upper mount bolt, it starts cranking. The mounting bolts are still tight.
To me, when I have to do this it's just as embarrassing as running out of gas right in front of the announcer during the parade at a tractor show would be.  Thankfully, I have never had that happen.Thoughts?

I was aware of that problem, but I was wondering if that is actually what is happening or if my exact problem is a unique one.

If you can jump across the battery cable to the small terminal on the starter and make it crank, I'd add the relay. Or, if you put a battery charger on the battery for a few minutes and it starts, another sign the relay might solve the problem the easy way. My experience on Kohler Command anyway.

When it is "clicking" but not spinning, check the voltage @ the starter terminal, on the starter, that should tell you if you have a sol problem or the armature/brushes need attention.
And /or as others mentioned, using a heavy wire or screwdrivers jump the 2 heavy terminals on the sol, that will essentially eliminate the sol from the circuit.

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.
