Mower Blade Care
WARNING!
Before performing
any maintenance, place the PTO
switch in the “OFF” position,
engage the parking brake lever,
turn the ignition key to the “OFF”
position and remove the key from
the switch. Protect your hands by
using heavy gloves when handling
the blades. When servicing the
mower deck, be careful not to cut
yourself on the sharpened blades.
The cutting blades must be kept sharp at all
times. Sharpen the cutting edges of the blades
evenly so that the blades remain balanced and
the same angle of sharpness is maintained.
If the cutting edge of a blade has already been
sharpened many times, or if any metal separation
is present, it is recommended that new blades
be installed. New blades are available at your
authorized dealer.
The blades may be removed as follows.
1.
Remove the deck from beneath the tractor,
(refer to “Deck Removal” on page 23)
then gently flip the deck over to expose its
underside.
2.
Use a 1-1/
8
” wrench to hold the hex nut
on top of the spindle assembly when
loosening the bolt securing the blade. A
block of wood may be placed between the
deck housing and the cutting edge of the
blade to help in breaking loose the hex nut
securing the blade. See Figure 4-23.
Figure 4-23
3.
When reinstalling the blades, be sure they
are installed so that the wings are pointing
upward toward the top of the deck.
4.
Tighten the blade nuts to 70-90 ft. lbs.
5.
Reinstall the deck. Refer to “Deck
Installation” on page 23.
Changing the Transmission Drive Belt
Several components must be removed and
special tools used in order to change the tractor’s
transmission drive belt. See your Cub Cadet dealer
to have the transmission drive belt replaced.
Tractor Creeping
Creeping is the slight forward or backward
movement of the mower when the throttle
is on and the speed control levers are in the
neutral position. If your mower creeps, see an
authorized service dealer.
