How to Remove a Mower Deck From a Cub Cadet

    • 1). Park the Cub Cadet mower on a level surface. Turn off the engine and place the PTO lever in the "Off" position. Place all other mower controls into the "Neutral" position and set the brake pedal lock.

    • 2). Lower the lift handle to the lowest setting. The lift handle is the long handle on the right side of the mower that operates the raising and lowering of the mower deck.

    • 3). Go under the left side of the mower and locate the brake rod. The brake rod connects to the clutch rod with a cotter pin and flat washer. The rod is toward the left front of the mower deck. Pull the cotter pin out with a pair of pliers and slide the flat washer off the clutch rod.

    • 4). Locate the idler pulley belt guard between the main drive pulley and the idler pulley. The pulleys are in front of the mower deck and behind the front wheel. The idler pulley belt guard has a rod with a metal loop on the end. Pull the metal loop and roll the belt off the idler pulley.

    • 5). Pull the engine drive pulley guard down and roll the belt off the drive pulley. The pulley guard is the bent bar in front of the drive pulley. Turn the wheels of the tractor all the way to the left.

    • 6). Go under the right side of the tractor and locate the front hangar assembly. The assembly connects to the front of the mower deck and a bar on the front hangar brackets that drop down from the tractor. Remove the cotter pin securing the front bar to the hangar bracket with a pair of pliers. Push the bar through the left side of the front hangar assembly.

    • 7). Remove the front hangar assembly from the roller bracket and front of the mower deck. Pull the cotter pin securing the front assembly rod to the roller bracket and mower deck. Pull the front hangar assembly away from the deck.

    • 8). Look for the four remaining linkages that support the mower deck under the mower. Lift the deck slightly under each link and remove the cotter pins securing the deck support rods from the linkages.

    • 9). Move the lift handle to the highest deck position. This will clear the linkages away from the mower deck. Pull the mower deck out from under the Cub Cadet by pulling the deck from the right side of the mower.
