Last Updated: September 2024

Overview

The Cub Cadet 1862 is a compact lawn and garden tractor built from 1990 to 1992. It features a 2WD chassis with power steering, making it easy to maneuver around yards and gardens. The tractor is powered by a Kohler Magnum M18 engine, which is an air-cooled, V-twin gasoline engine with 18 horsepower. This engine power is about average for tractors in its class.

At 71.7 inches long, 37.4 inches wide, and 43.7 inches tall, the 1862 is a good size for residential use. It weighs 893 pounds, which is on the heavier side for lawn tractors, giving it good stability. The tractor has a shaft-driven hydrostatic transmission with infinite forward and reverse gears, allowing for smooth speed changes. It comes with lawn/turf tires, an independent PTO with electric clutch, and an open operator station. The 5-gallon fuel tank provides enough capacity for extended mowing sessions.
