Cub Cadet Owner Check-In --- Read This First!

[BUTTERBEAN]

HELLO.

I have just joined in on this site, and have really enjoyed and used the info and replies to my Farmall and Hinomoto questions on Tractor By Net. Last weekend I rescued a Cub Cadet 1320 Mower from the barn, I don't know anything about the mower, it sat in my Dad's barn for several years, on a flat rear tire and with some kind of oil all over both sides of the engine and frame. I'll be reading and asking y'all for much appreciated expertise in getting it mowing again.

Thanks,
Dan

Look forward to learning alot about my mower and what I could possibly get in the future!!! I will be leaning on you guys for maintenance and repair issues that may come up!! Looking forward to it!!!:smile:

Hi all, First posting on here. Just picked up a LTX1045 yesterday. Cut the grass and it was a breeze. I had a Murray 46" 18.5 vtwin. It was nice but couldnt keep drive belts on it.

After doing alot of search online it was a toss up between this or the 1046. I wouldve liked to have kept the vtwin....I'm a guy who doesnt want more power. But I got a great deal on the 1045.....$1525 out the door!

I have a Zforce s 54. It is a great mower but I'm having an issue starting it. I replaced the battery and the only way it will start is to jump it at the starter! Any ideas???

What does the mower do when you try to start it with the key, make any sounds at all? I'd start checking some switches like the ignition, pto and brake switch first then some of the safety switches. These are just ideas but any of the above will keep the mower from starting. Also check the fuse and make sure it's alright.

Hi,
I'm tufnut from nw Arkansas! I ride a old 1250 Hydro ( about a 73 model) and a 2005 lt 1050! The old 1250 is loud, but it still works fine and is unrestored with the 44 inch deck. Someone replaced the 12 hp motor with a 16 hp kohler and it will fly! The lt1050 has almost 400 hours and has only had general maintanance, 1 new belt and a new set of blades! I need a set of sidecovers for the 1250! Happy mowing!
