7.

Move the tractor’s PTO (Blade Engage) into the ON 
position.

8.

Remain in the operator’s position with the cutting 
deck engaged for a minimum of two minutes, 
allowing the underside of the cutting deck to 
thoroughly rinse.

9.

Move the tractor’s PTO (Blade Engage) into the 
OFF position.

10. Turn the ignition key to the STOP position to turn 

the tractor’s engine off.

11. Turn the water off and detach the hose coupler 

from the water port on your decks surface.

12. Repeat step 4- step 11 on the opposite side of the 

cutting deck.

Before lubricating, repairing, or

inspecting, always disengage PTO, set
parking brake, stop engine and remove key to
prevent unintended starting.

Refer to Engine on page 19 for instruction regarding all 
engine-related lubrication.

Each of the front wheel axles and rims is equipped with 
a grease fitting. See Figure 18. Lubricate with a grease 
gun after every 25 hours of tractor operation.

Lubricate all the pivot points on the drive system, 
parking brake and lift linkage at least once a season 
with light oil.

Each of the tractor deck’s front gauge wheels is 
equipped with a grease fitting. Lubricate with a grease 
gun after every 25 hours of tractor operation

Grease fittings can be found on the front of each deck 
spindle shaft. Lubricate with 251H EP grease or an 
equivalent No. 2 multi-purpose lithium grease. Using a 
grease gun, apply two strokes (minimum) or sufficient 
grease to the spindle shaft.

The engines on Cub Cadet Series 1000 tractors are 
equipped with a Walbro fixed main jet carburetor.

Walbro carburetors have a low idle speed screw and a 
low idle fuel adjusting needle.

The carburetor is designed to deliver the correct fuel-to-
air mixture to the engine under all operating conditions. 
The main fuel jet is calibrated at the factory and is not 
adjustable. The low idle fuel adjusting needle is also set 
at the factory and normally does not need adjustment.

If the engine is hard to start, runs roughly, or stalls at 
low idle speed, it may be necessary to adjust or service 
the carburetor.

Turning the low idle adjusting needle in (clockwise) 
decreases the supply of fuel to the carburetor. This 
gives a leaner fuel-to-air mixture. Turning the adjusting 
needle out (counterclockwise) increases the supply of 
fuel to the carburetor. This gives a richer fuel-to-air 
mixture. Setting the needle midway between the lean 
and rich position will usually give the best results.

If engine troubles are experienced that appear to be 
fuel system related, check the following areas before 
adjusting the carburetor.

Axle Grease Fitting

Rim Grease Fitting

Low Idle

Fuel Adjustment Needle

Low Idle

Speed Adjustment Screw

NOTE: Screw locations may vary slightly by engine model.

 But the speed adjustment screw is always the upper screw.
