    PTO problem Cub 5252

    I have spent a lot of time searching for the problem and I am convinced it is in the wiring harness. I have wiggled the wires under the steering wheel and gotten the pro to stay on for awhile then do it again when it stops. I finally wired a toggle switch straight to the clutch and fixed the...

    Cub Cadet 5252 power steering problem only when hot

    I bought a used Cub 5252 a year ago. It had less than 100 hours on it. I put about 75 hours on it since then. I will say it's a pretty good tractor for my needs. I figured out all the little issues except for this one. After using the PTO for a while (usually about 30-40 minutes), it takes...

    hot hydrostatic in a Cub 5252

    I have a Cub 5252. The transaxle seems to get excessively hot after using the pto (mmm) for 30 minutes or so. The 3pt lift arms which attach to the trans get hot to the touch. The dealer tells me its normal but I'm not so sure. Hydro oil is full and fan is ok with no air blockage.
