Heres the service & repair manual for Cub Cadet RZT 17, RZT 22, RZT 42, RZT 50, Series ZTR Tractors. This is just like the original factory manual made for these tractors; the only difference is its not paper, and doesnt need to be shipped! Like the paper manual, it has many sections that are neatly organized in Adobe Acrobat, very clean, sharp images that are scalable to several times normal size. There are tons of illustrations, specifications, pictures, step-by-step instructions, special tool info etc.

2004 was the first year for the RZT. There were two models RZT17 and RZT22. For the 2005 model year the Kohler Command 19 HP model with the 50 deck. This series of riders has the unique feature of not having to reset the PTO switch if the end users tries to mow in reverse. Once one lapbar is moved in to neutral or forward the PTO will turn back on. The RZT17 has a 17 HP B&S Intek engine which is a single cylinder engine with full pressure lubrication. The engine drives the dual hydrogear EZT Hydrostatic transmissions and the electric PTO.

The PTO runs the 3-in-1 blades on the 42 twin blade stamped deck. On the front of the stamped frame is a large pivoting front axle. All this with the 3 gallon fuel tank provides many hours of fun and relaxing mowing. The RZT 22 is very similar to the RZT 17 except for the twin cylinder 22 HP B&S Intek engine. There are also 4 wheels, instead of 2, on the 50 triple blade stamped deck. All versions of the Cub Cadet RZT (and White ZT) are bagger capable.

About Cub Cadet

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester company.

During the 1960s IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners of increasingly popular rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and aftermarket attachments available at this time; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc.

Cub Cadet advertising at that time focused on their thorough testing by boys - acknowledged by many as the worlds worst destructive force! Cub Cadet tractors and mowers became known for their dependability and rugged construction. A cult-like following has emerged around current and former Cub Cadet tractors, similar to the following enjoyed by Macintosh computers.

MTD Products, Inc., of Cleveland, Ohio, purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment which now include MTD, YardMachines, YardMan, White Outdoor, Bolens, and Troy-Bilt.
