I have a B3200 with about 30 hrs on it. I was pulling some saplings out yesterday and had occasion to use my Diff lock. I was in Low range 4WD and didn't have enough traction. I stopped, let the pressure off the chain and applied the diff lock. I started off slowly as to allow the lock to engage. It was obvious that I did have power to both wheels. As I increased the HST the tires hopped a bit (I was on asphalt) and the sappling came out. So far so good. I stopped, released the tractor from 4 WD and released the Diff lock. I backed and went forward and assumed it was unlocked. A few minutes later I had occasion to use the loader. It was in 2 WD and I was on gravel/sand. I lost traction and I could see both rear wheels spinning. That led me to believe that the diff was still locked. From a stop I depressed and released the diff lock and it went down and up as before. Could the diff lock still be engaged, even though the pedal still goes up and down?
