[Farmall] Cub Mower

[Mike Sloane]

Did you check the drive pulley on the PTO shaft. Woods uses a pulley 
that is secured to the hub with a friction fit that is maintained by 
three 1/4-20 bolts. While the usual problem is that they cannot be 
disassembled, I it is possible that it is slipping.

Otherwise, you are going to have to dig deeper into the PTO assembly and 
look for stripped splines, etc. I am not familiar with the 142 mower, 
having only the (Woods) C-42, (Danco) C-3, and Woods L59 rotary mowers 
on my Cubs.

As far as the skid, I generally rebuild them when they wear out by 
welding a piece of scrap steel to the bottom.
