Cub 22 Hook up

[Robert Cool]

In the manual I downloaded it says "Do not remove drawbar" ,But when I looked at TM Tractors pics it shows no drawbar, Does it make a difference to have the drawbar on or not?

[Jim Becker]

It doesn't matter much. Fairly early on in production, IH slightly changed the rear bracket of the mower, the obvious difference was addition of a spacer at the upper mounting bolt so it would be a proper fit with the drawbar in place. If you have the early bracket, it can be mounted with the drawbar in place. But I would add a spacer to the upper bolt to square-up the bracket. It will probably leave a slight misalignment of the drive shaft, but it shouldn't hurt anything.

Mine has the drawbar on it with some washers under the bracket----works just fine!
