Cub cadet RTZ 50 problem

Post by Dojohn2004 »

Hello all, I have a zero turn cub cadet, I think is about a 2012 model. Recently I cannot back up when pressing the reverse pedal, and in idle it now goes forward without pressing the accelerator pedal. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Not sure if there is an adjustment somewhere? Any help would be greatly appreiciated! :D

First off welcome!

Secondly I don't own one or know how they work (30 years newer than my newest ones) but based on what you're saying I'd assume a linkage is broke on the pedal and not activating the hydro (assuming hydro) so the pedal is doing nothing and the hydro is freely going to the forward position. Have you been under it and inspected the linkages?

Worse would be something broke inside the hydro.
From the first Original to the last x82 Series... you can't beat an IH Cub Cadet!!!
