What It Is

This is a complete oil change and air filter kit for Cub Cadet XT1, XT2, LT46, LT50, and ZT1-54/ZT1-42 lawn tractors and zero-turn mowers equipped with Kohler 7000 Series KT715, KT725, KT730, KT735, or KT745 engines (725cc). It includes one oil filter, one air filter, and one bottle of 10W-30 oil.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your engine model number (e.g., KT725-3011) stamped on the valve cover or blower housing. This kit is designed for Kohler 7000 Series KT715-KT745 engines only—not for Kohler Courage, Command, or other series. It replaces OEM Cub Cadet part KH-32-883-09-S1 and Kohler part 32-083-09-S. Measure your air filter: the included filter is approximately 3.5" tall and 4.5" wide. This kit does not fit ZT1-50 or ZT1-60 models with Kawasaki or Briggs engines. Deck size (42", 46", 50", 54") is irrelevant—engine compatibility is what matters.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: OEM-grade components from Cub Cadet; air filter uses foam pre-cleaner and paper element. Oil filter is a standard spin-on type with anti-drainback valve.
• Installation: Easy—drain oil, replace filter (hand-tighten only), install air filter (no tools needed). Expect 15–20 minutes.
• Gotcha: The included oil is 10W-30; if you mow in extreme heat (above 90°F) or cold (below 32°F), consider a different viscosity. Also, the air filter is slightly taller than some aftermarket options—ensure your air filter housing cover closes fully.
• Common mistake: Over-tightening the oil filter can damage the gasket; use hand-tight plus 1/4 turn.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Cub Cadet with a Kohler 7000 Series engine (KT715–KT745) and want a hassle-free, OEM-matched kit for one oil change, this is a solid buy at $20.88. It’s especially convenient for first-time owners who want to avoid guessing which filter or oil to buy. For those with non-Kohler engines or who prefer bulk oil, a generic kit may be cheaper.
