look at the Hydrolics, whats the deal?

[Dan Robertson]

Looks to be a home fabricated reservoir tank only under the fuel tank with an aux. valve back near the seat. I don't see any cylinder/s or rockshafts anywhere.

[Todd]

I dont think so, If you blow the pic up you can see lines running up to the pump

['60_Lo-Boy]

^looks like he had to fill it often.

My Cub is set up like this one on eBay. It has a square hydraulic tank in same location with soft lines to the pump and an external ram on steering shaft side.

[Todd]

what are the lines running to the back for? Is this an after market unit. The filler looks bigger than the heating oil filler on my house! Anyone going out that way
?

[Rick Prentice]

I think you're right Dan. It looks like a quick connect fitting on the control valve. He must have had an implement with a cylinder on it. Kind of a neat simple setup.

wow... someone had some calcium leakage...

poor cubby

Hi All

I see that it also comes with a belt pulley. Paul K. in N.H.

['60_Lo-Boy]

i dont see why it shouldnt, the description says it runs. that bely pulley is perty cool aint it

[Todd]

wish i was closer i woudl bid on it. I emailed and ask how much to ship it to MD. I am sure it would be more than the tractor cost

[PAUL K. in N.H.]

Hi All

Also has wheel weights all around. I don't see a battery, thought I saw a hand crank on the floor pan but not sure. I see the lights, empty battery box, starter and I know it has a mag, as he says it needs work. I don't see a pullrod on the starter, but like I said I thought I saw a hand crank. I know you would need the battery for the lights, but I never really understood the mag and hand crank deal and how it all works, as my fcub is a 61 with battery and distributor. I know how you fellas hand crank them up, just not the mag, distrubutor battery deal. I may be further in the dark than I thought, but I'm tryin. Paul K.in N.H.

[John *.?-!.* cub owner]

On the early cubs, as well as most other old tractors starter and lights were optional. The magneto generated enough voltage to fire the spark plugs without the need for a battery. Of course with no electrical system or starter a hand crank or pulling was the only way to start it.

Hey all,

I see what I would like to have in the background of this picture, looks like an old Deere (left front of Cub) on steel and also a "hit-n-miss" maybe 1 1/2 horse?

The cub would be ok too, but like Todd, to far to travel.

I have a friend in Victor maybe he can take a look for me. I'm going up to see him in May. Looks like a BIG weld on the tube just behind the clutch pedal. Oops, that might be the battery cable or hydraulic line.
