HST forward foot pedal won't come all the way back

[Pierrepont]

Did these suggestions solve the problem?

I experienced this issue on a friend's tractor today. He thought new parts, I thought lubricant.

What has time and experience shown on the lubricant suggestion please?

Thanks.

I sprayed lube on the shaft and tried to get it into the tranny, tough to get it in there. Anyhow it still sticks in forward and not reverse. Now I'm reading about people replacing the HST, I hope this is not what I have to do. I posted on the other thread that this is becoming a common issue and I feel it should be a recall issue. I'm stuck on solutions for it. Let me know how you make out.

Lots of discussions about this. My dealer replaced my HST to solve it on my CK30. As mentioned, Bobcat has a bulletin that basically says "We'll try and fix it, but if it doesn't work, you're screwed". I don't have the tractor, or the problem, anymore, but I think current owners should start to raise a stink. I really think this is a wide spread issue with the CK (CT2XX) series.
