Hello to all,
I am new to this site and new to tractors. I just purchased a L2800 and am hoping I made good choice. Before I get too worked up I am going to assume I am doing something wrong. The tractor starts fine but when I have it in low and go to move forward it shuts right off. It almost acts like a safety switch because it cuts off immediately.
It did it 3 times to the guy that delivered it and he seemed confused and said it was cold.(the guys father that i purchased the tractor from)He then started it again and gave it more RPMs and it did it one more time and he quickly got it to level ground at let it idle and left.
Anyways to make a long story short I tried it in Medium range and it does it less frequent but does seem to be better when warm and RPMs higher. I just got it yesterday and have not got a manual yet. When moving forward or reverse in low or medium is it required to give more throttle(RPMs) in order to move.Is there a certain RPM I should be at just to drive with no load? I even checked the under seat to see if that seat safety was maybe sticking. Please, any help or feedback would be great! Positive or negative. Thank you
