The International Harvester Cub Cadet 71, 102, 122, and 123 tractors represent a significant line of compact utility vehicles produced by International Harvester's Cub Cadet division. These tractors, marketed as "garden tractors," were designed for homeowners and small-scale farmers seeking reliable and versatile machines for a wide range of tasks. Their compact size, maneuverability, and diverse attachment capabilities made them popular choices for mowing lawns, clearing snow, hauling materials, and performing other yard work. These tractors were introduced in the mid-1960s and were known for their robust construction, user-friendly controls, and relatively affordable price point. The International IH Cub Cadet 71, 102, 122, and 123 models shared a common core design but varied in engine power and features. The 71 was the entry-level model with a smaller engine, while the 102, 122, and 123 offered increased power and additional features. These tractors typically featured a single-cylinder gasoline engine ranging from 8 to 12 horsepower, providing sufficient power for most residential applications. The 122 and 123 models were enhanced with features like hydrostatic transmission, which allowed for seamless speed control without shifting gears. The robust construction of these tractors, including their cast iron front axles and sturdy frames, ensured durability and longevity. These models were equipped with a variety of optional attachments that added to their versatility, including rotary mowers, snow blowers, tillers, and even small plows. Their enduring popularity and legacy as reliable workhorses for homeowners and small property owners solidified their place in the history of compact utility tractors.
