Default 1250 reverse weak

Reverse seems weak on my 1975 Cub 1250. It's like u have to pull it all the way down to get it to move. Is it just out of adjustment or something else? Forward seems fine.

Could be out of adjustment, but I'd rather think the reverse release valve isn't seating well.

Might take it out and clean it up, make sure it all moves freely.

Could also need a fluid and filter change.

God Luck with it.

If I had to bet, you have a worn trunnion. I have the same issue with a 149 and one of these days I'll get off my lazy but and fix it. Today is not the day, maybe one of these days.

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.
