    Flail mower

    Flail mowers are great. For a number of years, my neighbors and I had a guy with a bush hog mow our back fields. It always looked good for a day or two, then mysteriously, rows of uncut grass would appear. Last year, I hired someone with a large flail mower to come in and mow the fields...

    Cub Cadet 1450, 3600 RPM does not hold, without holding the Throttle Lever

    I have a similar problem. My dealer oiled/greased the cabling in the throttle and the throttle wouldn't hold in the higher position. The next time I brought it back for repairs, he looked at it and saw that there were 2 places that needed to be tightened. It still slips a little, so I fixed...

    1711 Anti-scalp Wheels

    For the wheels, check out the sponsor CC Specialties at the top of the page. When I needed one of the front wheels for my 50" deck, I bought it from them.

    Cub Cadet 1782 Front PTO

    I can't speak for the exact measurement for the air gap. I know on my 152D, I have had an issue with the PTO stopping when the unit got too hot. It was solved by having the air gap set correctly. I have NOT done this adjustment myself. I usually wait for the next time I am having an issue...

    Off-topic mower blade option question

    Sorry, I am a little late to the discussion. I also have a 50C (I assume that is the 50" deck you are referring to) and have just put on a set of Oregon Gator blades, I bought a couple of years ago. They kind of got lost in the shuffle of a move. They are Oregon Part# 90-656. They are the...

    782D journey

    I have a 1512D, just a variation on a 782D. I just used the same insulation tubing that one would use to insulate the plumbing in their home. The dealer that installed it when they were replacing my hoses, didn't have an issue with it. So it's been doing just fine for the past 4 years since...

    Looking for 1863 plow blade lever/bar to lower and raise plow

    I agree that Xtreme should be able to supply a lift rod to help you. I would drop them a note or call them and find out what they need. The sizes, length of the needed rod, and diameter of both holes (the one on the tractor should be a familiar size to them, the diameter of the hole on the...

    Radiator hoses for a 1512D?

    I have had absolutely NO problems. Fingers crossed that it will last another 15 years like the first go around... Sorry, I don't have any pictures of the fixes. The 1512D is put away for the winter, unfortunately. We had a fairly mild winter last year and I didn't have help easily available...

    Best front plow/blade option for my 2084?

    I have the 54" blade with hydraulics on my 1512D for winter. I didn't install it this year because I had no idea we would get so much snow this year. PLUS, without help, it is a hassle switching over from mule drive to blade for me. I haven't used it on dirt. It doesn't have any downforce...

    done with my cub cadet 1512

    The tractor looks great. As for the 3-point hitches, guess both methods work. I noticed one other difference between our 1512's. On your dash, to the left of the handle to control the speed of movement, you have that adjustable knob which if it is like the one my father had on his 1450, can...

    1512 And Front Blade

    Looks very similar to the setup I have on my 1512. If you can do it, I would suggest putting the hydraulics on it. Makes a world of difference not having to get off the tractor to adjust the angle of the blade. A nice sanding job and a few coats of paint and you'll have a great setup. I wish...

    done with my cub cadet 1512

    Beautiful work, from another 1512 owner. I didn't see these posts when you originally put them up. I'm not sure if 1512's could be different. When I bought my 1512 used in 1996, I was told that the only way to use sleeve-hitch attachments left-over from his 1450 was to add a Cat-0 three-point...

    Please I.D. this model for me.

    When someone mentions a model heaving a PTO, I usually associate that with a rear PTO. I know some of the larger Cubs had true PTO's but did the 149, or whatever this model is, have a rear PTO? I know my 1512 and most other models have the toggle switch on the dash that is marked as PTO, but...

    o no water in the gas

    According to my dealer that I use for both my Cub Diesel and my Echo 2-cycle stuff, although they do recommend pre-mix in many cases, they were very adamant about using good 2-cycle oil. I had my 30-year-old Echo string trimmer that had been passed down from my father in there because it would...

    So it begins...

    I'm not really sure how to totally fix it, but when I brought my 1512D into the dealer for some needed repairs, the tech somehow "lubed" the throttle. (I'm not sure what that entailed). When I got it home, the throttle handle would come down to about half. When I asked him about it, he told...

    Model 1811 Pulling Roller, Just Stopped Pulling

    That is EXACTLY how my dealer replaces the roll pins when I can't seem to get a new one in myself.

    Model 1811 Pulling Roller, Just Stopped Pulling

    The roll pins on the driveshaft are the biggest issue I have with my 1512D. Through the years the holes in the driveshaft have ovalized, so the roll pins don't stay in there as they used to. My dealer loops a stainless-steel wire through the middle of the pin to give them a better chance of...

    Haban front blade - 982

    I'm not sure why you can't see them. The pictures I was referring to for my question in post #26 to "John" was in reference to his pictures in post #20 of this thread. I hope that helps.

    Haban front blade - 982

    John, Can you share some dimensions on the rubber blade on your 2072? I'm interested in knowing the thickness of the rubber and the height of the rubber strip itself. It appears to be about 4"-5" tall. I'm wondering if it is tall enough to be reversible if the bottom edge starts wearing out...
