The Electric PTO clutch on Series 5000 compact 
tractors is external, but requires some transaxle 
disassembly to remove. See Figure 3.2.
•
It is possible to set the clutch air-gap in-situ, 
without removing the fenders.

R&R instructions are contained in the 2004 Cub

The electric fuel pump is mounted to the left 
hand side frame channel on all gasoline pow-
ered domestic compact tractors. See Figure 3.3.
•
Diesel powered tractors in the Series 5000, 
6000, and domestic 7000 line do not have elec-
tric fuel pumps. 
•
Caterpillar engines have a mechanical lift pump 
feeding the high-pressure injector pump, and 
Briggs & Stratton Daihatsu pumps are able to 
self-feed.
•
The electric fuel pump is powered whenever the 
key switch is ON. When they run there is an 
audible clatter. The noise is louder when there 
is air in the system, and quiets-down as the sys-
tem fills with gasoline. This may take 10-15 sec-
onds after the key switch is turned-on.
