B7500 Hyd

[Anonymous Poster]

Well, it finally came. It is now 8:30 P.M. I have owned my new Kubota for 2 hours. Already I have a question for my fellow Kubotians. When I start to drive in high range in foward or reverse I notice that the tractor will slowly start to move and then suddenly will slightly jolt to a faster speed and then act normally through the upper speed ranges. This does not happen in low range. I suspect this is the high range hydraulics cutting in. Any B7500 hydro owners out there with the same experience? JETHRO

That's the neutral valves closing after pressure builds in the closed circuit loop. Less noticeable in low range but still there.

I've never noticed it. I'll be looking for it now though... /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

I've noticed it - like a turbo kicking in. It's weird sensation when you're used to manual transmissions.

Yeah, my B7500 does it once in a while.

Mine is more noticable when not at operating temp.

Thanks, fishman. I spent more time undoing than doing./w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif
