ENGINE DETAIL
The International Harvester Cub Lo-Boy tractor features a C60 gasoline engine with a compact displacement of 1.0L, providing adequate power for small-scale agricultural tasks. Its low-rated RPM of 1800 ensures fuel efficiency but may limit high-speed applications; hence, it's ideal for tasks requiring torque over speed, such as mowing or tilling. Maintenance considerations include a relatively small oil capacity of 3 quarts, necessitating more frequent oil changes, and a simple ignition system with either 6V or 12V starter options, depending on the model year.

INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER CUB LO-BOY ENGINE
The International Harvester Cub Lo-Boy features a compact 1.0L 4-cylinder gasoline engine, providing efficient power for light to moderate agricultural tasks. With a 7.5-gallon fuel tank, it offers a decent range for small farms or gardening applications, though operators should anticipate frequent refueling for extended use. Its low-profile design allows for greater maneuverability in tight spaces, making it an ideal choice for mowing and maintaining smaller plots of land, albeit with limited power for heavier implements.

TRANSMISSION
The International Harvester Cub Lo-Boy features a sliding gear transmission with 3 forward and 1 reverse speed, allowing for moderate maneuverability in tight spaces. Its dry disc clutch provides efficient power transfer but may require more frequent maintenance compared to hydraulic clutches. This configuration makes it advantageous for small-scale farming and gardening but may pose challenges in heavier towing or heavy-duty fieldwork scenarios due to limited power and gear options.

INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER CUB LO-BOY TRANSMISSION
The International Harvester Cub Lo-Boy features a 3-speed sliding gear transmission, which allows for smooth gear shifts and efficient power delivery across various speeds. This design enhances maneuverability in tight spaces, making it well-suited for gardening and small farm applications. However, the simplicity of the transmission may result in limited versatility in heavy-duty tasks compared to models with more gearing options.

MECHANICAL
The International Harvester Cub Lo-Boy, a two-wheel-drive tractor with manual steering, is designed for tasks in narrow spaces, such as orchards and vineyards, thanks to its low-profile design and open operator station. Its bull gear final drive offers high torque at low speeds, advantageous for plowing or cultivating; however, this can limit top speed and maneuverability compared to higher-geared models. Operators should consider the mechanical simplicity of manual steering, which may be seen as a con in terms of ease of handling for longer operations.

INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER CUB LO-BOY TIRES
The International Harvester Cub Lo-Boy tractor features a compact design, which is ideal for small-scale farming and gardening applications. The front Ag tires (4.00-12) provide excellent maneuverability in tight spaces, while the rear Ag tires (8.3-24) enhance stability and traction on uneven terrain. Challenges may include limited horsepower for larger tasks; therefore, it is best suited for lighter agricultural work, landscaping, and maintaining rights-of-way.
