Kind of a weird question but maybe somebody can explain this to me.
I was on the partstree.com website looking at diagrams of the 7200, and 7205 Cub Cadet tractors, assuming the mahindra 2015 I have is pretty much Identical. (that's what I've been told, and it seems to be accurate). I was doing this because I like to know the inner-workings of things, and how everything goes together, because I like to do my own maintenance and repairs.
Anyhow, I got to the clutch diagram. There were 2 clutch digrams listed. The one for the hydostatic said "single" and the one for the gear (like mine) said "dual". Now I know my tractor has a non-live PTO, single stage clutch that engages the drive AND Pto together and cannot do it separately.
My question is this: Could they (do they) mean a DUAL FRICTION, (2 friction plates) single stage clutch, or did the cub cadet gear drive use an entirely different clutch, hence making the Mahindra and Cub NOT IDENTICAL afterall???
I ask this because a dual friction would tend to last alot longer under hard use than a single but it doesn't seem likely a small unit like mine would employ one. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this really long post!!!
