HI,

I won't repeat the question I posted in the general owning/operting forum.

I just took delivery of my new B2910 this afternoon. I like it a lot. Put three hours on it today after filling the rear tires...some pictures are posted in the general forum too.

But my real concern is the HST operation and whether what I am experiencing is normal or not.

If any of you Kubota HST owners can give me some advice I would really appreciate it!

The title of the thread in the general forum is "HST Drifting normal?" or something like that! Gee, I forgot the exact title already!

If you can, please let me know how your hst works on gradual slopes...

I really appreciate all the help you guys give us new guys!

I have a BX2200 and my tractor will drift on an incline. The pedal also sticks occasionally and does not set it self back to the middle so I get a little movement. When that happens I just tap the pedal in the other direction and it rectifies itself. HST drive is definitely not like a gear shift tractor. I hope this helps.

The conclusion at this end is that some drifting of the HST is normal...so I have accepted this.

I did ask the dealer, and most posters at the other thread I referred to above are in agreement. Slight drifting is normal.

THanks for your help here and over at the other tread.

Bill
