I lost power in all 3 speeds just moving forward. tractor has 430 hrs on it, and hydro filter and fluid changed at about 350 hours. I was grading the driveway and engaged in the ground pretty hard, and after that I noticed it hardly moves forward but moves backwards fine. Any ideas?


Disregard! Heres what happened after an hour of going over tractor. I had mud on my boots that picked up some rocks. the rock fell off the boot and prevented the forward pedal of depressing far enough to give it more power..my stupid mistake.

Most of us has had similar things happen. Glad you found the problem. Better you found it then some guy at $100 per hour.
