[AT] Cub Cadet 129

[Mike Sloane]

OK, first off, the 123 was the first hydrostatic Cub Cadet, so it is 
likely that things changed later on. If you look at the image: 
<http://public.fotki.com/mikesloane/other_machinery/cadet123.html> you 
will see the lever I referred to. It is on the right side, just in front 
of the seat and fender. Below the lever you can barely see the little 
piece of angle iron that flips over and restrains the lever when it is 
down.

It is entirely possible that we are both right for different reasons! :-)

I suggest you go to Yahoo Groups and sign up for the Cub Cadet group - 
they get questions like yours every day and are only too happy to help.

He who fights with monsters might take care lest he
thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into
an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.
-Friedrich Nietzsche, philosopher (1844-1900)
