Electric Ride-on Mowers

No, Cub Cadet machines are straightforward to operate, and it won’t take long to perfect the art of ride-on mowing to give your lawns a professional finish.

Customer feedback has been:
“You can walk up and drive it with confidence the first time.”
“Bought one and anyone in the family can use it, it’s not intimidating.”

Absolutely. We have dealers nationwide, find the one closest to you, and when you have a model in mind, you can arrange a time for a demonstration at your home or property.

Depending on the model you chose you will get between one hour and 90 minutes of continuous mowing before needing to recharge. To fully recharge plug your mower into a regular domestic power outlet and allow to charge for 4 hours.

You may need to adjust the level of your cutting deck. You can find the deck levelling adjustment procedure in the adjustments section of your product’s operator manual.

Deck wheels* and tractor tyres can affect operation as well.

Deck wheels should not make contact with the ground if the tractor is on a flat surface, the deck wheels should be approximately 6mm (1/4″) off the ground when the deck in a normal cutting position.

Check all tractor tyres regularly for proper inflation pressure; the factory settings are usually 10 psi. for rear tyres, and 14 psi. for the front tyres. NOTE: Some variation in tyre composition and wear may produce tyres with differing heights when inflated to the same air pressure. If you are noticing uneven mowing patterns, then it may be necessary to measure the actual inflated tyre height to see if there is a height imbalance.

If after checking deck level and tyres, the problem persists it may be the result of one of two situations.

1. Parts need replacing. The blades or spindles are worn, or out of balance or the tractor may have bent or damaged deck hangers.

2.You may be trying to cut grass that is too long for the machine to handle. A lawn is grass cut to approximately 10cm (4″) to 15cm (6″) long.

If overgrown it may be necessary to pass back over the cut area a second time to get a clean finish.

DO NOT attempt to mow over heavy brush and weeds or very tall grass. Your tractor is built to mow lawns, NOT to clear brush.

*Deck wheels are the narrow wheels found bolted to some cutting decks that provide a smooth rolling traverse over uneven terrain. Large decks (117cm/46″ and up) may have wider deck rollers. Depending on the model, deck rollers either hang or are in constant contact with the ground.
