    What to do if the tines turn but the wheels don’t on my Cub Cadet RT 35 Tiller?

      If the tines on your Cub Cadet Tiller are turning but the wheels aren't, check if the wheel drive pins are correctly inserted in WHEEL DRIVE; if not, insert the drive pins properly. Also, a loose bolt in the transmission pulley can cause this, so tighten the bolt. If the problem persists, there may be internal transmission wear or damage, and you should contact an authorized service dealer.

      If the wheels on your Cub Cadet Tiller are turning but the tines aren't, first check if the tine holder mounting hardware is missing and replace it if needed. Also, a loose bolt in the transmission pulley can cause this, so tighten the bolt. If the issue continues, there might be internal transmission wear or damage, and you should contact an authorized service dealer.

      If the wheels turn, but the tines don’t on your Cub Cadet Tiller, it could be due to these reasons: 1. Tine holder mounting hardware may be missing, so replace the hardware. 2. A bolt may be loose in the transmission pulley, so tighten the bolt. 3. Internal transmission wear or damage could also be the cause; in this case, contact an authorized service dealer.

    Why won't the wheels or tines turn on my Cub Cadet RT 35?

      If the wheels or tines on your Cub Cadet Tiller aren't turning, it could be due to a few reasons. You might not be using the controls correctly, so it's a good idea to review the Operation section. Another cause could be a worn, broken, or mis-adjusted drive belt, in which case you should replace or adjust the belt. A loose bolt in the transmission pulley can also cause this issue, so make sure to tighten it. If none of these solutions work, the problem might be internal transmission wear or damage, requiring you to contact an authorized service dealer.

      If your Cub Cadet Tiller isn't tilling well, worn tines could be the problem, so consider replacing them. The depth regulator setting might also be incorrect. Additionally, check the throttle setting. A slipping forward drive belt can also cause poor performance.
