The Cub Cadet XT1-ST 54 FAB is a residential lawn tractor powered by a 24 HP Kohler 7000 Series twin-cylinder engine (model KT724, 747cc). It features a 54-inch fabricated, 11-gauge, triple-blade AeroForce cutting deck that optimizes airflow and maximizes suction to reduce clumping during discharge and improve bagging performance, delivering Cub Cadet’s Signature Cut with 12 cutting height positions ranging from 1 to 4 inches.

The tractor uses a Tuff Torq K46 hydrostatic foot-pedal transmission, reaching a forward speed of 5.5 mph and a reverse speed of 3.1 mph. It includes a robotically welded frame with e-coating corrosion protection, a cast iron front axle, disc brakes, and a 16-inch turning radius for a zero-turn-like feel. Comfort features include a 15-inch high-back seat with seat spring suspension and lever adjustment, soft-touch cruise control, dual LED headlights, and traction pad floor mats.

Additional features include a 3-gallon fuel tank, a 210 cold-crank amp AGM battery, QuickAttach tool-free deck attachment, electronic fingertip deck engagement, and a patented SmartJet high-pressure deck washing system. The Cub Cadet XT1-ST 54 FAB is rated for mowing 2 to 4 acres of mostly flat terrain and comes with a 3-year unlimited-hour warranty (including powertrain).
