Question

There are a number of snow accessories for sale on this model. Snow removal is a much more intensive hub than cutting...is that sort of activity going to shorten the life of this model I.e. is it designed to handle it?
Chuck
from Connecticut

Answer
Chuck,
The Cub Cadet lawn tractors are equipped to handle snow removal. The only risk you run with this would be if you do not remove the deck prior to using any of the snow accessories as this will cause rust and can damage the deck. Cub Cadet has maufactured snow accessories that will be compatible with this model such as:
- Cub Cadet (46") Tractor Snow Plow Blade
-Cub Cadet (42") 3-stage Tractor Mount Snow Blower
-Cub Cadet XT1/XT2 Tractor Snow Cab

Does this mower have cruise control?
Does this mower cut in reverse?
Cathy
from Mississippi
May 10, 2016
Answer
Cathy - yes, the Cub Cadet LT46 lawn tractor does have cruise control. This tractor will also mow in reverse, but you will need to activate an override on the ignition switch (where the key goes in) each time you wish to mow in reverse.

What's the difference between the LT and the LX?
Rick
from Ohio
March 18, 2016
Answer
Rick,
The only differences between these models would be that the LX tractors will have arm rests and a front bumper. Aside from these features, the LT and LX units will perform and operate the same.

Will it mow in reverse?
Charles McCaffree

Answer
Charles - the Cub Cadet XT1 and XT2 series tractors all have a Reverse Mode setting on the ignition switch where the key goes. If the key is turned to this position on the ignition switch, the tractor can be operated in reverse with the mower blades engaged.
