Yes. I did it in the spring for this video, but typically I do it in the fall after leaf pick up because the dust clogs the air filter. This way it’s ready to go in the spring time.

Some dispute about using grease on the steering gear…..many say the grease attracts dirt and debris and causes wear…suggest using a spray dry lubricant instead…that spin on oil filter is a real pain…oil leaks all over when taking it off…I fashioned a small tray to divert the oil beyond the frame to the catch pan…just my two cents…good job..

I had the same thought when I put the grease on, but I also know metal on metal is not the greatest idea either. I was figured I could clean it off with degreaser and acetone and try something else. I am going to go hunting for this mythical dry lubricant you mentioned is it just never occurred to me that such a product would’ve existed. Thank you!

We bought a refurbished (never again) XT1 from home depot 1 yr and 1 week ago. Yep, that ONE week got us on warranty 😢anyway, both belts are fine but it stopped moving? Is there anything we can check? Hubs says he doesn't see a way to check transmission fluid in the hydrostatic trans? But obviously its something bigger than the belts? Thoughts? Help???😊

To be honest, I’m kind of a lousy mechanic, but if I had to guess I’d say your transmission is low on hydraulic fluid. Maybe you have a leak? I did some investigation myself several years ago and you are right that it is a sealed unit. To be frank I’ve had nothing but trouble with mine as well considering it’s less than four years old. I’ll never buy another one of those that’s for sure. The only reason I bought it is most of the good tractors are too wide to fit between my cars in the garage. In a couple more years, I’ll dump this one and buy something of a higher quality from a dealer.

@@armedanddangerousdiy6096 well that's a super honest reply, thank you!! I actually found some redneck lady on here doing a super quick video on that sealed unit...apparently she got a neighbor with strong arms and some crazy tools to pop that plug out lol! She didn't go into detail (I wish she would have) but she said yr 1 she had to replace the trans and now another year later (after popping out the plug) she found out she was 1/2 tank low on fluid. I think we're about to start tearing it apart to see what we can see. Thanks for your honest input and no, we won't be buying another either. The worst part is that to me it wasn't cheap, 1899.00 plus tax for a supposedly 2 week old refurbished one ain't nothing to sneeze at!👺

Please tell me how to make my intellipower run! New Carb, Clean Gas, Clean Air,Filter, Clean fuel filter, clean fuel tank. Carb was installed by certified servicer as was the fuel filter. The dealer also drained entire fuel system, tank included it starts but the only runs well when intellipower is cranked up all the was and blade is engaged. Has 40 hours on it, driven on level ground by a 87 year old man. PLEASE. Thank you.

I’m sorry but xt2 does not have that feature. It’s just an old skool throttle and choke cable. If it only runs well under load it sounds like it’s running rich. With only 40 hours…is it still under warranty? Mine had a 3 yr warranty.

You should always apply NEW OIL on the new oil filter seal. Not old dirty gritty used oil. Who ever told you to use the old oil did not know what they were doing. You have new oil right there. Just a dab of it and you’re done.

@@sissymurphy9620 both of these "tips" are misinformation. new oil isn't needed on the o-rings (makes no difference) and you should NEVER intentionally introduce contaminants into the "post-filtered" side of filters by pouring unfiltered fluid into them. new oil is incredibly dirty straight out of the bottle

You better take care of what u have the new Cub cadet is really gone down hill in quality, I bought a new LT enduro 50” the battery is AGM, which is weak, i replaced it in less than a year, selinoied went out in 20 hours, transmission went out in 66 hours, MTD is gone to crap , the engine is good but the rest of is trash or cheap

I’ve had several repairs on this tractor and it’s only three years old. I fully agree with your assessment. The issue for me is no one makes a good quality mower. That’s small enough that I can fit between the cars in my garage. My plan is to own it another three or four years and go buy something else. But your comment is well founded. Cub cadet is not what it used to be. I think I’m going to go back to John Deere, a good one from the dealership, not a cheap junkie one from the local builder supply.
