Yanmar YM1720D
New to tractors, have 5acres and inherited a YM1720D. It does what I need, however I noticed that the front wheels would start dig in when using the FEL. I found an online manual and see that its in 4wd, but when I switch to 2wd it wont move. I can shift out of 4wd smoothly, but getting into 2wd is super stiff/stubborn. Any suggestions on what to look at, or should I just load it up and take it in?

Thanks in advance,

Tractor Noobie

From my parts the YM1720D, Power shift Regulator is my guess. The gasket cover is showing PSG-2451 and my guess there is a screen in the Hyd. Valve itself dirty or clogged. Fredricks #'s Limited on parts for that model.

Are you saying you do not have rear wheel drive? Front wheel drive only?
