Cub Cadet 682
The Cub Cadet 682 is a lawn and garden tractor that was made from 1979 to 1985. It's a 2WD machine with a manual steering system and a hydrostatic transmission, which means it can go forward and backward smoothly without changing gears. The tractor is powered by a Kohler KT17 engine, which is air-cooled and runs on gasoline. This engine has 2 cylinders and produces 17 horsepower, which is about average for tractors in its class. The Cub Cadet 682 is built for yard work and light gardening tasks. It has lawn/turf tires on both front and rear, making it gentle on grass. The tractor is 71.7 inches long, 37.4 inches wide, and 42.9 inches tall. It weighs 661 pounds, which is a bit above average for its size. The fuel tank can hold 15 liters of gas. This tractor has some useful features like an independent PTO with an electric clutch, a sleeve hitch for attachments, and wet disc brakes for good stopping power. It was made in Louisville, Kentucky, and was part of International Harvester from 1979 to 1981, then MTD from 1982 to 1985.
