I have a L4400 and have a hard time raising the hood. Took it to the dealer to get the hood up so I can change the oil. The hood latch works but acts like something is binding the hood. Had to get it off of the hinges at the rear and then it would raise. The mechanic could not find anything wrong. Oiled the latch and hinges. Hauled the tractor home and next day the hood would not come up. I slid it off the hinges and was able to raise. I removed the hinged rod that holds up the hood. I have not raised the hood since I removed the hinged rod.
Anyone have problem raising the hood on their tractor, especially the L4400? If so, what was the problem?
