Hey guys, I seem to be getting some chatter, for lack of a better term, from my HST. This usually happens when I am running full tilt, in low range, up hill and usually from take off. Some of you that have HSTs may have experienced something similar if you push your tractor too hard in a higher range. But I am kind of surprised that I get as much as I do in low range. It does seem to smooth out after I get up to speed. I also seem to be noticing more "groan" when the pedal is initially depressed on take off or when I am pushing a load with it. Rule of thumb says to back off on the pedal to get more torque right? But if I do that I just get more groaning.
My hydraulic oil level is right up there. If any thing maybe a little too much so. I had been keeping it a little on the high side so I wouldn't run low when I use my dump trailer. Could this be causing this chatter or is there something that needs to be adjusted on my tractor? Or am I just expecting too much from my 25 hp tractor?
I'll probably drain some out to see if it makes a difference, but I figured I would ask for your input anyway. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
