Drive Systems: A variety of hydrostatic and
CVT drive systems have been used on the 1000
Series tractors.
1.10. A Two-belt CVT system driving an MTD single-
speed transaxle is presently used only on the
LT1040 model. This system can be distin-
guished by the gear selector (F-N-R) on the left
rear fender, and the simple drive pedal.
See Figure 1.10.
1.11. A similar two-belt CVT system was employed to
drive a heavy-duty transaxle in some 2002 and
2002 models having two forward speed ranges.
These are easy to identify by the presence of the
gear selector lever between the operators knees
rather than on the fender.
1.12. All CVT driven 1000 and 1500 Series tractors
have a gear selector lever and a drive pedal on
the right side, near the brake pedal.
1.13. All Hydrostatic transaxles on the 1000 and 1500
Series are operated by a rocker pedal on the
right side, near the brake pedal.
1.14. A Hydro-Gear 310-0510 hydrostatic transaxle is
used on LT models having 20” rear tires. Hydro-
static transaxles have a rocker pedal to control
forward and reverse direction and speed.
