When I engage mower on my cub cadet it starts slow and when I get into long grass I must go very slow or will slip and not cut?

need govenor adjustment and throttle adjustment have to take in 60.00

its runnig out of gas check fuel filter for being dirty replace it with new one

THERE IS A TENCHON POLY ON THE BAND SO JUST ULTER THAT

You'll need to look under the deck w/ the mower not running and see why the blades aren't turning. Most likely something is bent (maybe blade) and hitting something. The smoke is probably from the belt slipping and getting hot.

do you have the right blades for bagging ?is the deck belt slipping?

Could be the ignition coil.

I hope this will help you...under the side panels on each side of the mower, there are "reverse lockout safety switches", they are supposed to stop the blades when both handles are pulled back. If one or both of the switches are out, the deck will not engage. Also, under the right side panel (when sitting on seat) there should be 3 relay switches, the one closest to the motor controls the PTO., if this is out, the PTO will not engage.

I have a cub cadet zero turn z force 48 yesterday i was cutting lawn and i heard a clink, the mower stopped, i was ablet o start the mower again but when i pulled the pto knob to engage the blades the mower turns off by its self, when the pto lever is pulled up i can restart the mower what is causing this and how do i fix it

hello
check mower deck is not caked up with grass if it is it will not get enough air movementto force the grass up the chute
also try cutting in 2or3 passes so that you are not forcing too mush grass up the chute
hope this helps
