Default My 1220 just won’t go?

I recently got my first Cub and it’s my first Hydrostatic drive. The guy I got it from told me it had been sitting for a while. I got it home, got it running, and at the moment of truth…. nothing. The fluid cup was empty so I filled it up and still nothing. The belt and pulley are moving and I can spin it freely. The engage/disengage plunger also stays pushed in. Any ideas or help would be great. This is my first run with this and I really wanted to have a quality tractor to use. Thanks Dick.

So I got it working Wednesday morning. The bypass valve was stuck. I worked it free and the thing works like a dream.

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.
