Hey all, I went up to get my woodsplitter this afternoon, and started spinning on a bit of ice, I went to engage the diffy locka nd it wouldnt go down, I stepped on it hard and it engaged, and worked ok, I had to do the same thing 2 more times...
I had this trouble a few weeks back as well,
I think the trouble started when I lent my tractor [WRONG!!!!! thing to do] and found out that the differential lock was used hard,, by hard I mean that he had to go up a very muddy roadway with quite a load, and even before the tires were actually spinning or needing help he was standing on the diffy lock to keep the momentum up the hill, not saying I wouldnt have done the same thing on occasion,, but this was done pretty regularily,,,
I have not gotten into the problem yet, but wanted to know if there was any suggestions out there prior to me looking at it,, it may be as simple a sa bent?? linkage maybe going into the trans?? anything to look for that could jump at me before I worry too much
and what kind of process am I looking at if i have to go further in to the unit.. thansk pat
