Seat and Fenders

There are four variants of fender used on the Cub Cadet Series 1000 for the model year 2009 and after:

• Manual PTO models have two levers on the right fender: one for the deck height control and one for the

PTO.

• Electric PTO models have one lever on the right fender to control the deck height.

• CVT-drive tractors (single-speed transmission + variable speed pulleys) use fenders with a single pedal

opening on each side: clutch/brake on the left, drive pedal on the right. In addition, a forward-neutral-

reverse lever is on the left fender.

• Hydrostatic-drive tractors use fenders with a single pedal opening on the left, and two openings on the

right. The clutch/brake pedal is on the left, with two pedals on the right; one to control forward drive, and

the other to control reverse drive.

NOTE: Removing the fenders provides access to:

• The bolts that hold the base of the dash panel to

the frame.

See Figure 4.13.

• The nut that holds the drive belt tensioner pivot

bracket to the frame.

• The travel stop pin that must be taken-off to

remove the control pedal cross-shaft.

! CAUTION! CAUTION

The battery will be removed in this procedure. Review the Operator’s Manual and the Chapter

7: Electrical Systems for important safety information about handling batteries before pro-

ceeding.

IMPORTANT: Do not return an unsafe mower to service.
