Cub Cadet RZT22 Parts Catalog – 44 Pages OEM Part Numbers

Description

You know the drill – you pull a mower apart, find a busted part, and then spend half a day chasing down the right replacement. Order wrong, wait a week, do it again. That costs money and kills a Saturday. A Cub Cadet RZT22 Parts Catalog stops that cycle cold. This is the original factory-issued parts breakdown, 44 pages of exploded diagrams and OEM part numbers that match exactly what Cub Cadet put on the line. No aftermarket guessing, no third-party renumbering.

Air Filter, Blower Housing, and Engine Air Guides – Section Breakdown

Page 2 of this catalog lays out the entire air intake system. You get every part number – blower housing (BS-695277), air cleaner cartridge (BS-499486), pre-cleaner filter (BS-273638), even the knob (BS-691008) and clips (BS-691010). When a customer brings in an RZT22 that won’t run because the air filter is clogged, you pull up this page, order the exact cartridge, and move on. No cross-referencing generic filters that don’t seal right.

Carburetor And Intake Manifold – 27 Ref Numbers

Pages 3 and 4 cover the carburetor and intake manifold assembly. Nineteen part numbers just for the carburetor section – float, needle valve, main jet (standard and high altitude), throttle and choke shafts, gaskets. The manual includes the fuel solenoid (BS-699728) and the float bowl (BS-699502). If you’ve ever rebuilt a small-engine carb without a parts list, you know the risk of losing a spring or mixing up gaskets. This catalog takes that guesswork out. Reference number 11 shows both standard and high-altitude jets – critical for shops in different elevations.

Controls And Deck Lift – Full System Layout

Section on page 5 shows the controls and deck lift assembly. This is the steering linkage, lift arms, springs, and hardware that makes the RZT22 steer and raise the deck. When the deck won’t lift or the steering feels sloppy, you need the exact washers, bushings, and pins. The exploded view identifies every bracket and bolt. You can hand the part number to the counter guy without pulling the assembly apart twice.

Who Needs This 44-Page Parts Catalog?

Home garage guys who maintain their own Cub Cadet, small engine repair shops, and mobile mechanics who deal with mowers. If you own an RZT22 and want to keep it running without paying dealer markup on parts, this is the reference you keep on the workbench. 44 pages of part numbers, quantities, and special/fitment codes (S/P/F). The column shows whether a part is special order, standard production, or fitment-specific. That matters when you’re ordering and the dealer says “can’t return it.”

OEM Source vs. Aftermarket Parts Lists

Aftermarket parts catalogs renumber parts to fit their inventory. Then you get a part that looks right but the screw holes don’t line up – cost you a return shipping fee and three days. This Cub Cadet RZT22 Parts Catalog is the original factory document from Cub Cadet, sourced from the same data the dealership uses. Every part number starts with BS- or another factory prefix. The numbering matches the parts on the shelf at the Cub Cadet dealer. No translation errors.

3 Reasons to Buy the Factory Document

One: You get the exact illustration for the RZT22, not a generic diagram that covers fifteen models. Two: The parts list includes quantity per assembly – you know if you need one or two of a screw. Three: The S/P/F column tells you if a part is special order or standard stock, so you know how long the wait will be. That alone can save a callback later.

FAQ

Will this catalog help me rebuild the carburetor on my Cub Cadet RZT22?

Yes. The carburetor and intake manifold section (pages 3-4) lists every component: float, needle valve, main jet, throttle and choke valves, gaskets, and the fuel solenoid. You can identify what you need by the reference numbers on the exploded drawing.

Does it include torque specs?

No. This is a parts catalog – it lists part numbers and quantities, not torque values. For torque specs you need the service manual.
