# How to Tell the Year of a Cub Cadet Lawn Mower
Cub Cadet began making machinery in the early 1960s and now makes products for use in nearly any type of landscaping job, whether it be to dig a large hole or simply to mow a lawn. As with any type of machinery, Cub Cadet mower parts can eventually break down and need replacement. In such situations, it's useful to have the serial number, model number and the year of the machine on hand.
