    Haban front blade - 982

    How high and thick is the rubber? It looks fairly thick and I am guessing it is 4" or 5" high.

    Haban front blade - 982

    John, I like the idea of the "rubber" scraper attached to the blade. I have been thinking about doing the same with my 54" blade for my 1512. How thick is that rubber? I have found a place online and actually only about 90 miles from where I live that sells various lengths and thicknesses of...

    My Restored 1572

    Upgrading the driveshaft is something I would love to have done to my 1512. I have an issue where the spiral pins have a tendency of falling out at the most inappropriate times when the Stainless Steel wire holding them in finally gives out. Can I ask where is your friend located in NY? It's...

    1512D Question: Kubota 600D engine, what does this tube do?

    Thank you. Luckily, when I tried the PTO again a few hours after posting my question, the PTO worked fine. I am guessing it may eventually go but I appreciate your suggestion on the Xtreme clutch. I did a quick search and saw that the $245 one you had was the Xtreme (no E). If it goes, I may...

    1512D Question: Kubota 600D engine, what does this tube do?

    Thank you guys. I'm hoping my issue with the PTO not engaging isn't the PTO itself. Just in case I need a new PTO, how do i know which one it is? Digger, I see 2 different PTO's listed in your product page that specify 1512. They are priced at $245 & $500+. Is the only difference that one is...

    1512D Question: Kubota 600D engine, what does this tube do?

    If you refer to my previous post about my PTO cutting out after cutting grass for 45 minutes or so, I have put off buying a new battery until I got around to going to my dealer to check other stuff out before having a new one installed. I have cut my grass a few times since with no issues. I...

    New Member With 1512

    Welcome to the goup. I've had my 1512D for over 20 years now. Take care of it and it will do wonders for you. Mine isn't a beauty queen. It works for a living. I'll try to help with any questions you may have. The people on this forum are a wealth of knowledge.

    PTO on my 1512D cuts out (stays in upward position though) when mowing grass after 45 minutes to an hour.

    bpientka, Thank you for your suggestion. I usually have the dealer check the PTO air gap whenever I bring it in. I did have an issue with the air gap a few times. The dealer did check it last summer when I brought it in for other services. I know it's kind of a PITA to get to, so I'll see if...

    PTO on my 1512D cuts out (stays in upward position though) when mowing grass after 45 minutes to an hour.

    Thank you for the heads up about the center lock nuts. I had used a Nylock nut I had to replace #16 in your diagram. I will have to take a look at the nut #20 to see if that is the proper one. I'ven never replaced that particular one. Funny thing is, I found a nut in my driveway after...

    PTO on my 1512D cuts out (stays in upward position though) when mowing grass after 45 minutes to an hour.

    I thought I would add a few pictures to show what I meant when I used what may have been incorrect terms for the items I described in my original post. I am positive, I have an incorrect name for the "Spring Loaded J shaped thingy", but they have changed the Cub Cadet parts lookup I used to use...

    PTO on my 1512D cuts out (stays in upward position though) when mowing grass after 45 minutes to an hour.

    Snicklas - Thank you for such a quick answer. Hopefully, a new battery will fix the issue. It's hard to believe that if the battery has enough juice after running for a while (45-60 minutes) and being shut off and the tractor starts right up, the battery would cause an issue with the PTO. I...

    PTO on my 1512D cuts out (stays in upward position though) when mowing grass after 45 minutes to an hour.

    I apologize for making this a long question, and if I have the wrong name for a piece of the tractor. I just figured it would be best to tell you all the specifics. Here is the situation that I hope the people on here can help me with. A few weeks ago, I had to jump-start (50AMP start option...

    Poor mowing

    You are correct in stating that there are a number of different sets of blades listed on the CCS website. A quick look at the Cub Cadet Parts lookup website seems to point to a Part # 759-3939. Again, there are at least 3 different descriptions on CCS that show that part # within their...

    782d battery

    I have a 1512D which is like a step-brother to the 782D. I have been using Interstate SP40 batteries for the past several years. They are 340CCA and don't have an issue with getting it started. I DO NOT have the high-torque starter though. I do have a block heater I can use in the winter up...

    CC 782 transmission drive shaft fan????

    Those fans are VERY important. If you look at the sponsor CC Specialties at the top of the page, they have the correct fan for $18.44. Digger is great to work with, and I am sure you can find other parts you may need. The part is on the Clutch, Driveline & Rear End page on the site. Look...

    tire chain alternative

    That is also a great idea if they do hold up. I guess even if you have to replace the strip a few times a season. The rubber sheeting I was talking about in my reply was the sheeting (1/4" and 3/8") that Tractor supply sells by the foot. I was told by the salesman that even when he cuts it...

    tire chain alternative

    I am going to do the same thing next year by putting a piece of rubber on the bottom of my plow. I was in the hospital most of November when I normally rearrange my garage and get my Cub and 54" plow set up for winter. I'm going to have to rely on my walk behind snowblower ONLY this year. The...

    Tractor Lifts

    I got the idea from the place that works on my Cub Cadet. They use an engine hoist with a strap that is centered and they attach the ends of the strap to the front of the tractor, near the wheels. Allows one to get to the underside of the deck and the machine. I went out and bought one of the...

    Tie rod ends

    I changed all my tie-rod ends on my 1512 Diesel (not that that matters) to Heim joints a few years ago. Great upgrade. You just have to make sure you buy the right size and when installing them you are careful to have them set to the correct length (you have to play with the threading them in...

    50C 5" Deck wheel replacement

    I didn't have access to the website when I replied to your email. I had looked under wheels NOT mower deck parts when I was looking for the part. If I was to order the wheel, which shoulder bolt would I order? 489429 R1 or 938-3093? By the way, I did find the shipping price once I got back to...
