SECTION 4: FINDING YOUR MODEL & SERIAL NUMBER

This Operator’s Manual is an important part of your new tractor. It will help you prepare, maintain and safely operate your tractor. Please read and understand what it says.

Before you start to prepare your tractor for its first use, please locate the model plate and copy the information from it into the space provided in this Operator’s Manual. The information on the model plate is very important if you need help from your dealer or the Cub Cadet customer support department.

Every tractor has a model plate. The model plate is located on the right frame rail behind the right front tire. See Figure 1.
