Guys, be careful what you tell someone to do. The cub has the switch on the starter. If you hook your jumper cables to that terminal you are also hooking to the battery. This is dangerous like been explained. A cable would need to be disconnected to be safe and then you have to hook appropriately to ignition or it still won't start. On starters like on an older H or M that have the starter switch separate from the starter, then it is perfectly safe and acceptable to hook a 12 volt boost on to the starter by NOT touching the starter switch. Other models and conversions have a magnetic switch on starter or remotely mounted. They also can safely be jumped by hooking to starter side of magnetic switch(commonly called solenoid) Some one who is not up on electrical components can get into a whole lot of trouble. I have seen it all the time over the years. Even after showing them, telling them, explaining it to them, they hook up wrong. Blown up batteries are no joke. Sure you can blow one when doing everything right, but the odds are way, way, down compared to exposing a 6 volt battery to 12 plus volts.
