Our 360 has the Backhoe/Front Loader attachments. This is our primary use for the tractor. It has been working quite fine until Yesterday.

It was used the day before and was evidently working normal (my brother was using it). Then I went to use it the next morning. There were problems:

The clutch pedal seems to have no real resistance now (almost like stepping on a wet sponge)
The tractor has no "get-up-and-go" in the upper range.
The mid and lower range seem to still work as before, however the clutch still has no real resistance at the pedal as before.

Any ideas?

I forgot to ask ...

Does anyone know where I can get a service/repair manual for this tractor?

Sounds like the return spring on the clutch pedal broke. If you look under the floor plate on the side with the clutch pedal, you should see a place on the pedal as well as on the frame/plate where the spring attaches.

There is a spring on the pedal that is fastened to the tractor toward the back of the machine. The pedal returns to the up position just fine.

Is this the spring you are talking about (it is still there) or should there be another one that pulls the clutch lever from the front?

Qapla!
