Kubota B7800 starts runs well but will barly move forward or backward.

Changed fuel filter, cleaned air filter, motor will run well and accelerate. However, when depressing forward or reverse the motor will stop unless I very gently depress and the tractor will just barely move.Help!

How many hours on the unit ?

Did this problem surface suddenly ... or has it been "coming on" for a while ?

If the former, how was the tractor being used just prior ?

Final thought: Have you checked the parking brake ?

Check your seat switch.

X2 for "open" seat switch. It's happened to me once.
