I've had several hydrostatic drive tractors and when properly adjusted wil not creep when running.
2210 Hydrostatic creep, my imagination, or something else?

The procedures will surely be in the service manual, it's usually quite simple to adjust. I would think your dealer would be able to copy those pages out of the manual for you. But if you plan on doing any service on your tractor buy a manual. I know they are kind of a expensive but a must have if you want to fix stuff yourself.

I will clarify. Every new /used brand of tractor I have driven will move on an incline (not the pedal failing to return to the neutral position) a Hydro is a fluid coupling if the idle is low on the tractor there is insufficient coupling which will allow a slight roll to occur. I would be interested in seeing one that does not. Steve...

Thanks STVMAN, it's what I was trying to say. Our definitions of creep were not clearly defined. I describe the failure of the hydro pedals to return to the neutral position as walking and creep something that happens when the pedals are in neutral whether the engine is running or not as you have explained. While my tractor creeps a little, it is small enough to where when mowing backwards down the steep banks of my pond, I have plenty of time to react and change direction. Conversely, my manual tractor requires intense braking while backing down. I already have it in forward and low gear with the clutch in just in case. This difficulty has prompted me to pretty much forgo the manual for that type of work. Rat...

Now I finally realize why you don't like manuals as much. That is a problem for me too. Before I start going up the incline on a hill I have to downshift to prevent rolling backwards at a fast rate of speed! /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
