There should be a pedal that you would depress with your right heel. It attaches to a long lever that attaches to a shaft that runs across the transmission.

I dont see any pedal like that on mine. Do you have a picture? I have a 1500D

Below is an internal picture of the diff lock and rear axle parts breakdown for a 1500.

Mine does. Lever is down by the right foot.

I have included a couple of pictures of a 1500 that I believe show the Diff lock pedal and the cross shaft.

My 1500D has no such pedal / lever or cross shaft. It is an early 1500D. I think it is like number 2500 made. There is no spot on the rear end for diff lock. When I had the tranny in the rebuild process, there were parts of it that differed greatly from the used 1500 transmission I bought.

I wouldnt care to bet that these things went through production changes as it went along .

Not quite sure it may be a 1500 tranny? I remember reading that MJ said that his has serial # 400 something on it so that is several hundred before yours and the tranny is what has the serial # on it so we know that were talking about trannies here and not just tractor peices that could be from who knows when in the production.
