Thank you for posting this. You saved me hours of head scratching and wrenching trying to figure out how to remove the deck to replace a bent blade. Never occurred to me that I could just pick the front end up by hand and prop it on a step stool.

I've got the same set under the Troybilt label. After the 1st year, I purchased a Drainzit hose for oil changes. Works great with no mess. I also spray white lithium grease on the steering rack. That makes it feel like power steering and because of the steering failures this machine is prone to.

I just replace with a new blade every couple of years. Had mine since 2015. It's tricky to prevent some the oil from hitting the cutting deck. I learned to put some old towels underneath to absorb any spills. I just did the rack and pinion steering a couple days ago b/c it was slipping. The machine is good if you don't have a ton of hills .

Awesome video, thanks for taking the time to make it! Will be doing the maintenance you recomemded in the next week

CC30h owners - there is an upgraded rack & pinion gear BRACKET replacement KIT for this mower. Significant improvement over the original mid 2021 and earlier models.

Just serviced mine today (9/15/22) and had the same oil mess that you experienced. even tho' I had cardboard underneath the oil stil got everywhere including the tires. I used up most of a roll of paper towels and I highly reccommend having a roll nearby, you are going to need it for the mower, the garage floor and your hands and tools. I am on my way shortly to purchase some garage floor oil cleaner.

Thanks for making this video 😀

Great video, thank you 🙏

"this is awesome"

Man that's some Porsche 911. Cuts grass to? Dang!

Going to buy an Oil Extractor drain it from the top to avoid the mess. What is the size bolt on the blade, socket and doesn't it have a specific torque setting when reattaching ? Good video Thanks for doing this.

where did you get the stand to hold mower up ?

Fantastic video, will definently check this out again when I need to service the mower. I've been trying to find something on taking the engine covers off. I'm not super adventurous when taking things apart because I end up with extra parts. I have a mouse nest all over in the engine, but I cant find anything good on getting under the lids on this mower.

Just come out and start it and let it run about every couple weeks. No need for a battery charger. Good video. 👍

Dorky?? I thought my neighbors envied me!!!

Awesome demo by the video, thank you. But, I need to change my battery. Can you please show a video on how to replace the battery on a CC30 H Hydro Drive Cub Cadet? Thanks again.

I changed my oil today on mine. I spilled slightly less than you lol. Going to add a 3/8” nipple 4” long with a collar. Then put the plug in the collar. I do know the plug does have a magnet but its very weak. I may put a magnet on it or in the filter.

The manual describes how to adjust front-rear deck tilt, but not how to level the deck left-right. My mower is now about an inch lower on the left than the right. Any ideas on how to do this?

How many ounces of oil does it take to fill once drained? Also, what size socket to remove the oil plug? Thanks!

you forgot to grease the steering rack

My mower won't go fast enough to cut my grass after having a neighbor work on it. The forward and reverse pedals feel to easy to push. What can I look for?

Any ideas? I just unboxed mine and set it up per the user manual. I did a test strip on the max blade height. And it cut right into the ground. I then adjusted the deck hangar, which was hell. And still no luck. Checked tire pressure etc. now when I adjust the height sitting in the garage from height one to two. There is no height adjustment occurring.

I have this mower but, know nothing about what you are doing. Please explain each thing you are cleaning and replacing, then i have an idea what to order if needed. What did you remove after you drained the oil. Thank you.

hi bro where is the spark plug

do you still have this mower?

Uniquement mulchin

What about the belt holmes

it seems cub cadet always gives homeowners issues

Pulleys no grease points? Or no changing of the hyrdrolic transmission fluid?

What a mess. Engineers don't think the design through, just paper pushers.

Hey Bro I need help with this mower!! If you still have it can you message me back?
