23. Muffler and engine become hot and can cause a  
burn. Do not touch.  
4. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for  
wheel weights or counterweights to improve  
stability.  
5. Use extra care with grass catchers or other  
attachments. These can change the stability of the  
machine.  
6. Keep all movement on the slopes slow and gradual.  
Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction.  
Rapid engagement or braking could cause the front  
of the machine to lift and rapidly flip over backwards  
which could cause serious injury.  
7. Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose  
traction, disengage the blade(s) and proceed  
slowly straight down the slope.  
24. Check overhead clearances carefully before driving  
under low hanging tree branches, wires, door  
openings etc., where the operator may be struck or  
pulled from the unit, which could result in serious  
injury.  
25. Disengage all attachment clutches, depress the  
brake pedal completely and shift into neutral before  
attempting to start engine.  
26. Your machine is designed to cut normal residential  
grass of a height no more than 10”. Do not attempt  
to mow through unusually tall, dry grass (e.g.,  
pasture) or piles of dry leaves. Dry grass or leaves  
may contact the engine exhaust and/or build up on  
the mower deck presenting a potential fire hazard.  
27. Use only accessories and attachments approved  
for this machine by the machine manufacturer.  
Read, understand and follow all instructions  
provided with the approved accessory or  
attachment.  
28. Data indicates that operators, age 60 years and  
above, are involved in a large percentage of riding  
mower-related injuries. These operators should  
evaluate their ability to operate the riding mower  
safely enough to protect themselves and others  
from serious injury.  
DO NOT:  
1. Do not turn on slopes unless necessary; then, turn  
slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.  
2. Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches or  
embankments. The mower could suddenly turn  
over if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff, ditch, or if  
an edge caves in.  
3. Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your  
foot on the ground.  
4. Do not use a grass catcher on steep slopes.  
5. Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could  
cause sliding.  
29. If situations occur which are not covered in this  
manual, use care and good judgment. Contact your  
Cub Cadet dealer for assistance.  
6. Do not shift to neutral and coast downhill. Over-  
speeding may cause the operator to lose control of  
the machine resulting in serious injury or death.  
7. Do not tow heavy pull behind attachments (e.g.  
loaded dump cart, lawn roller, etc.) on slopes  
greater than 5 degrees. When going down hill, the  
extra weight tends to push the tractor and may  
cause you to loose control. (e.g. tractor may speed  
up, braking and steering ability are reduced,  
attachment may jack-knife and cause tractor to  
overturn).  
SLOPE OPERATION  
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and  
tip-over accidents which can result in severe injury or  
death. All slopes require extra caution. If you cannot  
back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow  
it.  
For your safety, use the slope gauge included as part of  
this manual to measure slopes before operating this  
unit on a sloped or hilly area. If the slope is greater than  
15 degrees as shown on the slope gauge, do not  
operate this unit on that area or serious injury could  
result.  
CHILDREN  
1. Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not  
alert to the presence of children. Children are often  
attracted to the machine and the mowing activity.  
They do not understand the dangers. Never  
assume that children will remain where you last  
saw them.  
DO:  
1. Mow up and down slopes, not across. Exercise  
extreme caution when changing direction on  
slopes.  
2. Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other  
hidden objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the  
machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.  
3. Use slow speed. Choose a low enough speed  
setting so that you will not have to stop or shift while  
on the slope. Tires may lose traction on slopes  
even though the brakes are functioning properly.  
Always keep machine in gear when going down  
slopes to take advantage of engine braking action.  
a. Keep children out of the mowing area and in  
watchful care of a responsible adult other  
than the operator.  
b. Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters  
the area.  
c. Before and while backing, look behind and  
down for small children.  
d. Never carry children, even with the blade(s)  
shut off. They may fall off and be seriously  
injured or interfere with safe machine  
operation.

e. Use extreme care when approaching blind  
corners, doorways, shrubs, trees or other  
objects that may block your vision of a child  
who may run into the machine.  
f. To avoid back-over accidents, always  
disengage the cutting blade(s) before  
shifting into reverse. The “Reverse  
Caution Mode” should not be used when  
children or others are around.  
e. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and  
other sources of ignition.  
f. Never fuel machine indoors.  
g. Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the  
engine is hot or running. Allow engine to cool  
at least two minutes before refueling.  
h. Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more  
than ½ inch below bottom of filler neck to  
allow space for fuel expansion.  
g. Keep children away from hot or running  
engines. They can suffer burns from a hot  
muffler.  
h. Remove key when machine is unattended to  
prevent unauthorized operation.  
i. Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.  
j. If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine  
and equipment. Move unit to another area.  
Wait 5 minutes before starting the engine.  
k. To reduce fire hazards, keep machine free of  
grass, leaves, or other debris build-up. Clean  
up oil or fuel spillage and remove any fuel  
soaked debris.  
l. Never store the machine or fuel container  
inside where there is an open flame, spark or  
pilot light as on a water heater, space heater,  
furnace, clothes dryer or other gas  
9. Never allow children under 14 years old to operate  
the machine. Children 14 years old and over should  
read and understand the operation instructions and  
safety rules in this manual and should be trained  
and supervised by a parent.  
TOWING  
1. Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed  
for towing. Do not attach towed equipment except  
at the hitch point.  
appliances.  
m. Allow a machine to cool at least 5 minutes  
before storing.  
2. Follow the manufacturers recommendation for  
weight limits for towed equipment and towing on  
slopes.  
3. Never allow children or others in or on towed  
equipment.  
4. On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may  
cause loss of traction and loss of control.  
5. Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.  
6. Do not shift to neutral and coast downhill.  
GENERAL SERVICE:  
1. Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly  
ventilated area. Engine exhaust contains carbon  
monoxide, an odorless, and deadly gas.  
2. Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make  
certain the blade(s) and all moving parts have  
stopped. Disconnect the spark plug wire and  
ground against the engine to prevent unintended  
starting.  
3. Periodically check to make sure the blades come to  
complete stop within approximately (5) five  
seconds after operating the blade disengagement  
control. If the blades do not stop within the this time  
frame, your unit should be serviced professionally  
by your Cub Cadet dealer.  
4. Check brake operation frequently as it is subjected  
to wear during normal operation. Adjust and service  
as required.  
5. Check the blade(s) and engine mounting bolts at  
frequent intervals for proper tightness. Also,  
visually inspect blade(s) for damage (e.g.,  
excessive wear, bent, cracked).  
Replace the blade(s) with the original equipment  
manufacturer’s (O.E.M.) blade(s) only, listed in this  
manual. “Use of parts which do not meet the  
original equipment specifications may lead to  
improper performance and compromise safety!”  
6. Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear  
gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.  
7. Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the  
equipment is in safe working condition.  
SERVICE  
SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE:  
1. To avoid personal injury or property damage  
use extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is  
extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.  
Serious personal injury can occur when gasoline is  
spilled on yourself or your clothes which can ignite.  
Wash your skin and change clothes immediately.  
a. Use only an approved gasoline container.  
b. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a  
truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always  
place containers on the ground away from  
your vehicle before filling.  
c. When practical, remove gas-powered  
equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel  
it on the ground. If this is not possible, then  
refuel such equipment on a trailer with a  
portable container, rather than from a  
gasoline dispenser nozzle.  
d. Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the  
fuel tank or container opening at all times  
until fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle  
lock-open device.

8. Never tamper with the safety interlock system or other  
safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly.  
9. After striking a foreign object, stop the engine,  
disconnect the spark plug wire(s) and ground against  
the engine. Thoroughly inspect the machine for any  
damage. Repair the damage before starting and  
operating.  
For safety protection, frequently check components and  
replace immediately with original equipment  
manufacturer’s (O.E.M.) parts only, listed in this  
manual. “Use of parts which do not meet the original  
equipment specifications may lead to improper  
performance and compromise safety!”  
12. Do not change the engine governor settings or over-  
speed the engine. The governor controls the maximum  
safe operating speed of the engine.  
10. Never attempt to make adjustments or repairs to the  
machine while the engine is running.  
11. Grass catcher components and the discharge cover are  
subject to wear and damage which could expose  
moving parts or allow objects to be thrown.  
13. Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as  
necessary.  
14. Observe proper disposal laws and regulations for gas,  
oil, etc. to protect the environment.  
WARNING: YOUR RESPONSIBILITY Restrict the use of this power machine to persons who read, understand  
and follow the warnings and instructions in this manual and on the machine.  
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, DO NOT  
OPERATE UNLESS DISCHARGE COVER OR  
GRASS CATCHER IS IN ITS PROPER PLACE.  
IF DAMAGED, REPLACE IMMEDIATELY.

To travel in REVERSE, check that the area behind  
is clear then slowly depress the lower portion of the  
drive pedal with the ball of your foot (NOT your  
heel) until the desired speed is achieved. See  
Engaging the Parking Brake  
To engage the parking brake:  
Fully depress the brake pedal and hold it while  
gently pushing the parking brake lever downward.  
Hold the parking brake lever down while removing  
your foot from the brake pedal.  
Once engaged, the parking brake lever and the  
brake pedal will lock in the “down” position.  
IMPORTANT: Do NOT attempt to change the direction of  
travel when the tractor is in motion. Always bring the  
tractor to a complete stop before pivoting the drive  
pedal from forward to reverse or vice versa.  
To disengage the parking brake:  
Slightly depress the brake pedal.  
Driving On Slopes  
NOTE: The parking brake must be engaged if the  
operator leaves the seat with the engine running or the  
engine will automatically shut off.  
Refer to the SLOPE GAUGE on page 7 to help determine  
slopes where you may operate the tractor safely.  
WARNING: Do not mow on inclines with a  
slope in excess of 15 degrees (a rise of  
approximately 2-1/2 feet every 10 feet). The  
tractor could overturn and cause serious  
injury.  
Driving The Tractor  
WARNING: Avoid sudden starts, ex-  
cessive speed and sudden stops.  
Mow up and down slopes, NEVER across.  
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction  
on slopes.  
WARNING: Do not leave the seat of the  
tractor without first placing the PTO/Blade  
Engage knob in the disengaged (OFF)  
position, depressing the brake pedal and  
engaging the parking brake. If leaving the  
tractor unattended, also turn the ignition key  
off and remove the key.  
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other  
hidden objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the  
machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.  
Avoid turns when driving on a slope. If a turn must  
be made, turn down the slope. Turning up a slope  
greatly increases the chance of a roll over.  
Avoid stopping when driving up a slope. If it is  
necessary to stop while driving up a slope, start up  
smoothly and carefully to reduce the possibility of  
flipping the tractor over backward.  
Briefly depress the brake pedal to release the

Using the Deck Lift Lever  
Engaging the PTO  
To raise the cutting deck, move the deck lift lever to the  
left, then place it in the notch best suited for your  
application. Refer to Setting The Cutting Height earlier in  
this section.  
Engaging the PTO transfers power to the cutting deck  
or other (separately available) attachments. To engage  
the PTO, proceed as follows:  
Move the throttle control lever to the FAST (rabbit)  
position.  
Operating the Headlights  
Pull the PTO/Blade Engage knob outward into the  
engaged (ON) position. See Figure 8.  
Keep the throttle lever in the FAST (rabbit) position  
for the most efficient use of the cutting deck or other  
(separately available) attachments  
The lamps are ON whenever the ignition key is moved  
out of the STOP position.  
The lamps turn OFF when the ignition key is moved to  
the STOP position.  
IMPORTANT: The electric PTO clutch will automatically  
shut off if the PTO is engaged with the drive pedal in  
position for reverse travel. Refer to Safety Interlock  
Switches on page 12.  
Moving The Tractor Manually  
Your tractor’s transmission is equipped with a  
hydrostatic relief valve for occasions when it is  
necessary to move the tractor manually. Opening this  
valve permits the fluid in the transmission to bypass its  
normal route, allowing the rear tires to "freewheel." To  
open the hydrostatic relief valve, proceed as follows:

For best results it is recommended that the first two  
laps be cut with the discharge thrown towards the  
center. After the first two laps, reverse the direction  
to throw the discharge to the outside for the  
balance of cutting. This will give a better  
appearance to the lawn.  
Do not cut the grass too short. Short grass invites  
weed growth and yellows quickly in dry weather.  
Mowing should always be done with the engine at  
full throttle.  
Under heavier conditions it may be necessary to go  
back over the cut area a second time to get a clean  
cut.  
Do NOT attempt to mow heavy brush and weeds or  
extremely tall grass. Your tractor is designed to  
mow lawns, NOT clear brush.  
Mowing  
WARNING: To help avoid blade contact or  
a thrown object injury, keep bystanders,  
helpers, children and pets at least 75 feet  
from the machine while it is in operation. Stop  
machine if anyone enters the area.  
This tractor is equipped with one of Cub Cadet’s quality  
cutting decks. The following information will be helpful  
when using the cutting deck with your tractor.  
WARNING: Plan your mowing pattern to  
avoid discharge of materials toward roads,  
sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also,  
avoid discharging material against a wall or  
obstruction which may cause discharged  
material to ricochet back toward the operator.  
Keep the blades sharp and replace the blades  
when worn. Refer to Cutting Blades on page 25 of this  
manual for proper blade sharpening instructions.  
Do not mow at high ground speed, especially if a  
separately available mulch kit or grass collector is  
installed.

SECTION 6: MAKING ADJUSTMENTS  
Tighten the inner hex nuts front against the front  
hanger bracket to raise the front of the deck; loosen  
the hex nuts to lower the front of the deck. See  
Retighten the two lock nuts against the inner hex  
nuts when proper adjustment is achieved.  
WARNING: Never attempt to make any  
adjustments while the engine is running,  
except where specified in the operator’s  
manual.  
Leveling the Deck  
NOTE: Check the tractor’s tire pressure before  
performing any deck leveling adjustments. Refer to  
Tires on page 25 for information regarding tire pressure.  
Side to Side  
If the cutting deck appears to be mowing unevenly, a  
side to side adjustment can be performed. Adjust if  
necessary as follows:  
Front To Rear  
With the tractor parked on a firm, level surface,  
place the deck lift lever in the top notch (highest  
position) and rotate both blades so that they are  
perpendicular with the tractor.  
Measure the distance from the outside of the left  
blade tip to the ground and the distance from the  
outside of the right blade tip to the ground. Both  
measurements taken should be equal. If they’re  
not, proceed to the next step.  
The front of the cutting deck is supported by a stabilizer  
bar that can be adjusted to level the deck from front to  
rear. The front of the deck should be between 1/4-inch  
and  
3/8-inch lower than the rear of the deck. Adjust if  
necessary as follows:  
With the tractor parked on a firm, level surface,  
place the deck lift lever in the top notch (highest  
position) and rotate the blade nearest the discharge  
chute so that it is parallel with the tractor.  
Measure the distance from the front of the blade tip  
to the ground and the rear of the blade tip to the  
ground.  
Loosen, but do NOT remove, the hex cap screw on  
the left deck hanger bracket. See Figure 10.  
The first measurement taken should be between  
1/4" and 3/8" less than the second measurement.  
Determine the approximate distance necessary for  
proper adjustment and proceed, if necessary, to the  
next step.  
From the front of the tractor, loosen the hex lock nut  
on each end of the deck hanger rod, and turn away  
from the inner hex nuts. See Figure 9.

Parking Brake Adjustment  
WARNING: Never attempt to adjust the  
brakes while the engine is running. Always  
disengage PTO, stop engine and remove key  
to prevent unintended starting.  
If the tractor does not come to a complete stop when  
the brake pedal is completely depressed, or if the  
tractor’s rear wheels can roll with the parking brake  
applied, the brake is in need of adjustment. The brake  
disc can be found on the right side of the transmission  
in the rear of the tractor. Adjust if necessary as  
follows.  
Hex Nut  
Drag Link  
Looking at the transmission from the right side of  
the tractor, locate the compression spring and  
brake disc. See Figure 11.  
Ball  
Joint  
Jam

Thread the ball joint toward the jam nut to shorten  
the drag link. Thread the ball joint away from the  
jam nut to lengthen the drag link.  
Replace hex nut and retighten the jam nut after  
proper adjustment is achieved.  
Compression  
Spring  
Crown Nut /  
Cotter Pin  
NOTE: Threading the ball joints too far onto the drag  
links will cause the front tires to "toe-in" too far. Proper  
toe-in is between 1/16" and 5/16".  
Front tire toe-in can be measured as follows:  
Brake Disc  
Place the steering wheel in position for straight  
ahead travel.  
In front of the axle, measure the distance  
horizontally from the inside of the left rim to the  
inside of the right rim. Note the distance.  
Behind the axle, measure the distance horizontally  
from the inside of the left rim to the inside of the  
right rim. Note the distance.  
The measurement taken in front of the axle should  
be between 1/16" and 5/16" less than the  
measurement taken behind the axle.  
Adjust if necessary.  
Figure 11  
Carefully remove the cotter pin from the crown nut  
on the right side of the brake assembly.  
Using a feeler gauge, check the gap between the  
brake disc and the brake puck. Proper gap is .011".  
Tighten the crown nut until the proper gap is  
achieved.  
Insert a replacement cotter pin (part # 714-0111)  
into the crown nut.  
Seat Adjustment  
WARNING: Before operating this machine,  
make sure the seat is engaged in the seat  
stop, stand behind the machine and pull back  
on seat until fully engaged into stop.  
Steering Adjustment  
If the tractor turns tighter in one direction than the other,  
or if the ball joints are being replaced due to damage or  
wear, the steering drag links may need to be adjusted.  
To adjust the position of the seat, move the lever to the  
left and slide the seat forward or rearward. Make sure  
seat is locked into position before operating the tractor.  
Adjust the drag links so that equal lengths are  
approximately threaded into the ball joint on the left side  
and the ball joint on the right side:  
Loosen the jam nut found on the drag link at the  
rear of the ball joint. See Figure 12.  
Remove the hex nut on the top of ball joint.

repairs must be performed by your Cub Cadet  
Dealer.  
Temperature Change Expected Before Next Oil Change  
*Use of synthetic oil having 5W-20 or 5W-30 rating is acceptable,  
up to 4°C (40°F).  
**Synthetic oils will provide better starting in extreme cold below  
23°C (-10°F).  
Engine Oil  
IMPORTANT: Never operate  
The engine-crankcase is filled with 10W-30 ship-away  
oil at the factory. This oil may be used for the first 24  
hours of engine operation at temperatures between  
0°F and 80°F. If temperatures are not within this range,  
drain the oil from the oil filter and crankcase and  
replace with new oil.  
The engine oil must be drained and replaced with new  
oil after the initial 24 hours of engine operation and  
every 100 hours thereafter. Refer to the Oil Viscosity  
Chart to determine the proper oil type.  
the engine with the oil level  
below the ADD mark or  
above the FULL mark on the  
FULL  
dipstick.  
After checking the oil lev-  
el (and adding oil, if nec-  
essary), reinstall the oil  
fill cap/dipstick by insert-  
ing it into the oil fill tube.  
Operating Range  
NOTE: To aid starting, the selection of crankcase oil  
should be based on the lowest anticipated  
temperatures prior to the next scheduled oil change.  
Adding Oil  
ADD  
If, after checking the oil level,  
you find the dipstick reads  
ADD, proceed as follows.  
Checking the Oil Level  
It is important to check the oil level at least every four  
hours of operation. Regular checking during the first 24  
hours of operation is especially important. Check the oil  
level before each use as follows:  
Place the tractor on a level surface and engage the  
parking brake. Stop the tractor engine and remove  
the ignition key.  
Clean the area around the oil fill cap and fill tube to  
prevent debris from entering the crankcase.  
Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick from the oil fill tube  
and SLOWLY pour oil into the oil fill tube. Do NOT  
pour more than 6 oz. of oil at a time without first  
stopping and re-checking the oil level.  
Fill the crankcase until the oil level reaches the full  
(F) mark on the dipstick. See Figure above. Refer to  
the oil viscosity chart earlier in this section for  
information regarding the proper type of oil to add  
to the crankcase.  
Allow the engine a few minutes to rest after opera-  
tion. This will give the oil time to drain into the crank-  
case sump and result in a more accurate dipstick  
reading.  
Clean the area around the oil fill cap/dipstick to pre-  
vent debris from entering the crankcase.  
Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick by twisting it out of  
the oil fill tube.  
Wipe the dipstick clean before inserting it all the  
way back into the oil fill tube. Withdraw the dipstick  
to check the oil level. Refer to figure at right.  
IMPORTANT: The engine (with oil filter) has a capacity of  
1.7 liters (57.5 oz.). Never overfill the engine  
crankcase.  
Always keep the oil level at or near the FULL mark  
on the dipstick. If the oil is low, add oil of the proper  
type up to the FULL mark. Always re-check the oil  
level with the dipstick before adding more oil.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
     
IMPORTANT: The engine may overheat and/or damage  
may result if the oil level is below the ADD or over the  
FULL on the dipstick.  
Oil Fill Cap /  
Dipstick  
Reinstall the oil fill cap/dipstick securely onto the oil  
fill tube.  
IMPORTANT: The oil fill cap/dipstick must be installed  
securely onto the tube at all times when the engine  
is operating. Severe engine damage could result from  
failure to do so.  
Changing the Engine Oil  
The engine oil and oil filter should be changed after the  
first 24 hours of operation, and after every 100 hours of  
operation thereafter.  
Oil Drain Hose  
WARNING: If the engine has been recently  
run, the engine, muffler and surrounding  
metal surfaces will be hot and can cause  
burns to the skin. Allow the tractor to cool and  
use caution when removing  
Drain Port  
Figure 13  
Changing the Oil Filter  
After draining the oil, proceed as follows:  
IMPORTANT: The oil filter should be changed at every  
oil change interval.  
NOTE: Refer to the Replacement Parts table found on  
page 33 of this manual for the proper oil filter.  
To complete an oil change, proceed as follows:  
Before removing the old oil filter, clean around its  
base to prevent debris from entering the crankcase.  
Grasp the oil filter and remove it from the filter  
adapter by turning it counterclockwise.  
Place a new replacement filter in a shallow pan with  
the open end up and pour new oil (refer to viscosity  
chart on page 19) in through the threaded center  
hole.  
Draining the Oil  
Run the engine for a few minutes to allow the oil in the  
crankcase to warm up. Warm oil will flow more freely  
and carry away more of the engine sediment which may  
have settled at the bottom of the crankcase. Use care to  
avoid burns from hot oil.  
Pop open the protective cap on the end of the oil  
drain valve to expose the drain port. See Figure 13  
Remove the oil fill cap/ dipstick from the oil fill tube.  
Push the oil drain hose (packed with this manual)  
onto the oil drain port. Route the opposite end of  
the hose into an appropriate oil collection container  
with a capacity great enough to collect the used oil  
(approximately 2.5 liters).  
IMPORTANT: Stop pouring when the oil reaches the  
bottom of the threads and allow a minute or two for the  
oil to be absorbed by the filter material.  
Put a drop of oil on your fingertip and apply a light  
coating to the gasket of the new oil filter.  
Install the replacement oil filter on the engine by  
turning it clockwise onto the filter adapter until the  
rubber gasket makes contact with the base. Tighten  
the filter an additional 1/2 turn after the gasket first  
makes contact.  
Push the oil drain valve in slightly, then rotate  
counterclockwise and pull outward to begin  
draining oil.  
After the oil has finished draining, push the oil drain  
valve back in, rotate it clockwise to lock the valve  
closed and re-cap the end of the oil drain valve to  
keep debris from entering the drain port.  
Re-filling the Crankcase with Oil  
IMPORTANT: The engine (with oil filter) has a capacity of  
1.7 liters (57.5 oz.). Do NOT overfill. Always check the  
level on the dipstick as instructed on page 19 before  
adding more oil.  
IMPORTANT: Always change the oil filter when  
performing an oil change on your tractor’s engine.  
NOTE: For the proper oil type, refer to the chart on  
page 19 of this manual.  
Clean the area around the oil fill tube to prevent  
debris from entering the crankcase.

Slowly pour oil into the fill tube. Fill the crankcase  
until the oil level reaches the full (F) mark on the  
dipstick (Refer to Page 19).  
Reinstall the oil fill cap/dipstick securely into the oil  
fill tube.  
Service Paper Element  
The paper element should be replaced at least every  
100 hours of operation. Replace more frequently if the  
tractor is operated under extremely dusty conditions.  
To replace the paper element, proceed as follows:  
IMPORTANT: The oil fill cap/dipstick must be installed  
securely onto the tube at all times when the engine  
is operating. Severe engine damage could result from  
a failure to do so.  
Pivot the air cleaner cover upward and unhook the  
wire latch which secures the element in place.  
Remove the air cleaner element with precleaner.  
Remove the precleaner from the element and  
service as instructed earlier in this section.  
Start the tractor engine and allow it to run for thirty  
seconds, then stop the engine and remove the  
ignition key.  
IMPORTANT: Do not wash the paper element or use  
pressurized air, as this will damage the element.  
Check the oil level and add oil if necessary. Do not  
overfill the engine crankcase.  
Examine the area around the base of the oil fill  
tube, the oil filter adapter, and the oil drain valve for  
leaks before operating the tractor.  
Examine the element and discard if dirt and/or damage  
is present.  
NOTE: Handle new elements carefully; do not use if  
the sealing surfaces are bent or damaged.  
IMPORTANT: If leaks are present, have your engine  
serviced by your Cub Cadet dealer before operating the  
tractor.  
If any loose dirt or debris fell on the air cleaner base  
when the element was removed, carefully remove it  
and wipe the base clean. Be careful that none of it  
drops into the intake.  
Check the air cleaner base. Make sure it is secured  
and not damaged. Also check the air cleaner cover  
for damage or improper fit. Replace all damaged air  
cleaner components.  
Install the precleaner over the new paper element  
and reinstall the element.  
Air Filter  
The engine is equipped with a replaceable, high density  
paper air cleaner element and an oiled, foam  
precleaner. Always examine the air cleaner before  
starting the engine. Check for a buildup of dirt and  
debris around the air cleaner system. Keep this area  
clean. Also check for loose or damaged components.  
Replace all bent or damaged air cleaner components.  
Lower the wire latch to secure the element in place  
and pivot the air cleaner cover downward.  
Spark Plugs  
NOTE: Starting the tractor with loose or damaged air  
cleaner components could allow unfiltered air into the  
engine causing premature wear and failure.  
Every 200 hours of operation, remove the spark plugs,  
check condition, and reset the gap or replace with a  
new plugs as necessary.  
Precleaner  
Lift the tractor’s hood and locate the spark plug wire  
on the front, right area of the engine.

Lubrication  
Carburetor  
WARNING: Before lubricating, repairing, or  
inspecting, always disengage PTO, set  
parking brake, stop engine and remove key to  
prevent unintended starting.  
NOTE: Carburetor adjustments should be made only  
after the engine has warmed up.  
The engines on Cub Cadet Series 1500 tractors are  
equipped with a fixed main jet carburetor.  
Engine  
Carburetors are equipped with a idle speed adjustment  
screw and a low idle fuel mixture screw.  
Refer to Engine on page 19 for instruction regarding all  
engine-related lubrication.  
The Fuel Mixture Screw is the uppermost screw.  
The Idle Speed Adjustment Screw is the lower  
screw.  
Front Wheels  
Each of the front wheel axles and rims is equipped with  
a grease fitting. See Figure 16. Lubricate with a No. 2  
multi-purpose grease applied with a grease gun after  
every 25 hours of tractor operation.  
The carburetor is designed to deliver the correct fuel-to-  
air mixture to the engine under all operating conditions.  
The main fuel jet is calibrated at the factory and is not  
adjustable. The low idle fuel mixture screw is also set at  
the factory and normally does not need adjustment.  
If the engine is hard to start, runs roughly, or stalls at  
low idle speed, it may be necessary to adjust or service  
the carburetor.  
Axle Grease Fitting  
Turning the low idle mixture screw in (clockwise)  
decreases the supply of fuel to the carburetor. This  
gives a leaner fuel-to-air mixture. Turning the mixture  
screw out (counterclockwise) increases the supply of  
fuel to the carburetor. This gives a richer fuel-to-air  
mixture. Setting the screw midway between the lean  
and rich position will usually give the best results.  
Troubleshooting  
If engine troubles are experienced that appear to be  
fuel system related, check the following areas before  
adjusting the carburetor.  
Rim Grease Fitting  
Make sure the fuel tank is filled with clean, fresh  
gasoline.  
Make sure the fuel tank cap vent is not blocked and  
that it is operating properly.  
If the fuel tank is equipped with a shut-off valve,  
make sure it is open.  
Make sure that the in-line fuel filter is clean and  
unobstructed. Replace the filter if necessary.  
Make sure fuel is reaching the carburetor. Check  
the fuel lines and fuel pump for restrictions or faulty  
components, replace as necessary.  
Figure 16  
Pivot Points & Linkage  
Lubricate all the pivot points on the drive system,  
parking brake and lift linkage at least once a season  
with light oil.  
Deck Wheels  
Each of the tractor deck’s front gauge wheels is  
equipped with a grease fitting. Lubricate with a No. 2  
multi-purpose grease applied with a grease gun after  
every 25 hours of tractor operation  
Make sure the air cleaner element is clean and all  
air cleaner element components are secure.  
Deck Spindles  
If, after checking the items listed above, the engine is  
hard to start, runs roughly, or stalls at low idle speed, it  
may be necessary to adjust or service the carburetor.  
Grease fittings can be found on the front of each deck  
spindle shaft. Lubricate with 251H EP grease or an  
equivalent No. 2 multi-purpose lithium grease. Using a  
grease gun, apply two strokes (minimum) or sufficient  
grease to the spindle shaft.

Adjustment  
Lean  
Adjust to Midpoint  
NOTE: Engines may have a fixed idle or limiter cap on  
the idle fuel adjusting screw. Step 2 can only be  
performed within the limits allowed by the cap.  
1. Start the engine and run at half throttle for five to 10  
minutes to warm up. The engine must be warm  
before performing steps 2 and 3.  
2. Low Idle Fuel Screw Setting: Place the throttle  
into the “idle” or “slow” position. Turn the low idle  
fuel mixture screw out (counterclockwise) from the  
preliminary setting until engine speed decreases  
(rich). Note the position of the screw. Now turn the  
mixture screw in (clockwise). The engine speed  
may increase, then it will decrease as the screw is  
turned in (lean). Note the position of the screw. Set  
the adjusting screw midway between the rich and  
lean settings. See Figure 17  
3. Low Idle Speed Setting: Place the throttle control  
into the “idle” or “slow” position. Set the low idle  
speed to 1200 RPM ( 75 RPM) by turning the low  
idle speed adjusting screw in or out. Check the  
speed using a tachometer  
Rich  
Figure 17  
NOTE: To ensure best results when setting the low  
idle fuel Screw, the low idle speed must not exceed  
1200 RPM ( 75 RPM) .

SECTION 8: SERVICE  
Place a block of wood between the center deck  
housing baffle and the cutting blade to act as a  
stabilizer. See Figure 18.  
Tires  
WARNING: Never exceed the maximum  
inflation pressure shown on the sidewall of the  
tire.  
Hex Flange Nut  
Wood Block  
The recommended operating tire pressure is  
approximately 10 psi for the rear tires and 14 psi for the  
front tires.  
Refer to the tire sidewall for exact tire manufacturer’s  
recommended or maximum psi. Do not overinflate.  
Uneven tire pressure could cause the cutting deck to  
mow unevenly.  
Fuse  
A fuse is installed in your tractor’s wiring harness to  
protect the tractor’s electrical system from damage  
caused by excessive amperage.  
If the electrical system does not function, or your  
tractor’s engine will not crank, first check to be certain  
that the fuse has not blown.  
Spindle Assembly  
Figure 18  
Use a 1-1/8" wrench to remove the hex flange nut  
that secures the blade to the spindle assembly. See  
It is located under the hood mounted behind the top of  
the dash panel on the support bar.  
IMPORTANT: Always use a fuse with the same  
amperage capacity for replacement.  
To properly sharpen the cutting blades, remove equal  
amounts of metal from both ends of the blades along  
the cutting edges, parallel to the trailing edge, at a 25°  
to 30° angle.  
WARNING: Before servicing, repairing, or  
inspecting, always disengage PTO, set  
parking brake, stop engine and remove key to  
prevent unintended starting.  
IMPORTANT: If the cutting edge of the blade has already  
been sharpened, or if any metal separation is present,  
replace the blades with new ones.  
Cutting Blades  
It is important that each cutting blade edge be ground  
equally to maintain proper blade balance. A poorly  
balanced blade will cause excessive vibration and may  
cause damage to the tractor and result in personal  
injury.  
WARNING: Be sure to shut the engine off,  
remove ignition key and disconnect the spark  
plug wire(s) before removing the cutting  
blade(s) for sharpening or replacement.  
Protect your hands by using heavy gloves  
when grasping the blade.  
The blade can be tested by balancing it on a round  
shaft screwdriver. Grind metal from the heavy side until  
it balances evenly.  
IMPORTANT: When replacing the blade, be sure to  
install the blade with the side of the blade marked  
‘‘Bottom’’ (or with a part number stamped in it) facing  
the ground when the mower is in the operating position.  
WARNING: Periodically inspect the blade  
adapter and/or spindle for cracks or damage,  
especially if you strike a foreign object.  
Replace immediately if damaged.  
IMPORTANT:Use a torque wrench to tighten the blade  
spindle hex flange nut to between 70 lbs-ft and 90 lbs-ft.  
The blades may be removed as follows.  
Remove the deck from beneath the tractor (refer to  
Cutting Deck Removal on page 26), then gently flip the  
deck over to expose its underside.

bottom notch on the right fender.  
After cleaning the battery and terminals, apply a  
light coat of petroleum jelly or grease to both  
terminals  
Remove the deck belt from around the tractor’s  
electric PTO clutch (refer to Changing the Deck Belt).  
Looking at the cutting deck from the left side of the  
tractor, locate the deck support pin on the rear left  
side of the deck.  
Always keep the rubber boot positioned over the  
positive terminal to prevent shorting.  
IMPORTANT: If removing the battery, disconnect the  
NEGATIVE (Black) wire from it’s terminal first, followed  
by the POSITIVE (Red) wire. When re-installing the  
battery, always connect the POSITIVE (Red) wire its  
terminal first, followed by the NEGATIVE (Black) wire.  
Be certain that the wires are connected to the correct  
terminals; reversing them could change the polarity and  
cause damage to your engine’s alternating system.  
Rotate the pin slightly toward the rear of the tractor  
and release it.  
Pull the deck support pin outward to release the  
deck from the deck lift arm. See Figure 19.  
Jump Starting  
WARNING: Never jump start a damaged or  
frozen battery. Be certain the vehicles do not  
touch, and ignitions are off. Do not allow cable  
clamps to touch.  
Connect positive (+) cable to positive post (+) of  
your tractor’s discharged battery.  
Connect the other end of the cable to the (positive  
+) post of the jumper battery.  
Connect the second cable (negative –) to the other  
post of the jumper battery.  
Make the final connection on the engine block of  
the stalled tractor, away from the battery. Attach to  
a unpainted part to assure a good connection.  
Support Pin

IMPORTANT: If the jumper battery is installed on a  
vehicle (i.e. car, truck), do NOT start the vehicle’s  
engine when jump starting your tractor.  
Repeat the above steps on the tractor’s right side.  
Move the deck lift lever into the top notch to raise  
the deck lift arms up and out of the way.  
Gently slide the cutting deck toward the front of the  
tractor allowing the hooks on the deck to release  
themselves from the deck stabilizer rod.  
Gently slide the cutting deck (from the right side)  
out from underneath the tractor.  
Start the tractor (as instructed on page 13).  
Set the tractor’s parking brake before removing the  
jumper cables, in reverse order of connection.  
Allow the tractor’s engine to run in the FAST  
position for at least 15 minutes to allow the  
alternating system time to charge the battery.  
Changing The Transmission Drive Belt  
Charging  
If the unit has not been put into use for an extended  
period of time, charge the battery with an automotive-  
type 12-volt charger for a minimum of one hour at a
