What would you recommend for the easiest way ? Thanks

Don’t know how that happened. Sorry

Yes that’s it. I have an internal expansion tank. It shows there is a two prong black adapter to use, but, it screws in on the back side. Do you have to remove the wheel ?

ZTX5 with ZT3200 Hydro Gear pumps. Anyone used their kit to change fluid ? Thinking about doing it myself. Just wondering how difficult it would be.

I think Cub recommends half throttle. Even the Zt740 owners manual states half to full throttle. What happens if the solenoid plunger is snipped off . I’ve heard of this being done. Thanks for the help.

ZTX5 with ZT740 25hp Kohler with 15 hrs. Full throttle or idle down for stopping engine . I’ve been lowering throttle to idle and I’ve noticed it’s either backfiring of after firing when I shut it off. I’ve been told to shut down at full throttle, mid throttle, and, idle.

It’s not the parts breakdown as much as the factory service manual that are more in-depth. I’d like to do some DIY things that owners manual doesn’t cover. Thanks so much for your help.

I have the owners manual. The service manual is what I need. From what I understand printed copies were eliminated in 2014. Digital versions are available to dealers only. Used to be able to get the parts, and, service breakdown from Cub. However, partstree and ereplacement parts have the parts...

Need a service manual for my ZTX5 Cub. Thought Cub Cadet would have one available. Thanks in advance.

Just finished changing the break in oil on my ZTX5 ZT740 Kohler. I used a funnel with a strainer. First qt was ok. Second quart found a piece of gray plastic in the funnel screen, same color as the bottle. I used Kohler 10/30 semi synthetic. Glad I found it. Blue cap is for reference only.

ZTX5 ZT740 Kohler. Changing break in oil in about 2 hrs of break in time left. Thoughts on which oil to use ?

The ride was what I noticed with mine, too. I will do some more adjusting. Been used to a JD, and, this ZTX5 is very different.

I’m sorry didn’t mean to offend you. I called Cub the other day. It wasn’t that I didn’t like their answer. Most manuals list their own recommended tire pressures and not state what’s recommended on the sidewall. I’m sorry if I wasn’t clear, wasn’t insinuating that you were not a help, just...

I called Cub and they recommend 28 front and 20 rear (sidewall #’s). They aren’t much help either. I put 25 front 15 rear. Also trying to find the weight of the mower with no luck. Thanks

What’s the recommended tire pressure for a ZTX5 54”? Not in the manual.
