I have a 45 HP Mahindra 4510. The MWFD just quick working. The 4wd lever will go forward and backward (on and off) and the lever moves but the MFWD is not functioning. The only thing I did differently was tighten up the jam/lock nuts on the clutch and brake rods. Both had the correct amount of freeplay but the jam nuts were not tight at all.
I could live with this except I have hilly, wet ground. Pulling logs up the hill is OK due to the weight on the rear. Going downhill I have to be careful as it wants to gain speed or free wheel and have to use the front end loader to keep speeds from getting to great. Also any backing up on a slight incline or in too wet an area and I am nearly stuck without the front wheel assist.
The unit seems to be mechanical, levers and rods to function, no fuse or electronics involved that I can tell as compared to the PTO.
I am getting by but am careful and would have a lot more success in pulling and general use if the MFWD functioned. Any thoughts/cures? I will use a flashlight tomorrow to make sure nothing is impeding the rods/levers of the unit. Thanks
