Tires do not spin

[SPYDERLK]

We need to hear back from the OP. Everything fits the diagnosis of a rear and maybe a front rim also spinning within its tire.

shoulda bought a kubota dude.

My CK30 will easily spin the front and rear tyres and dig holes in low gear even with the diff lock. Sounds like you have very low pressure in the transmission.

I believe your tractor is "broken" From what all you have said, and I read it wont even spin the tires in low range on dirt in 2WD. Your tractor needs service. Take it to the dealer and have pressure tests done on the hydrostatic transmission.

My Kioti will spin the tires on a loose surface (like your dirt) in low OR medium range. Not in High range. And that is with loaded tires, and an 800+ lbs ballast box on the rear.

Same thing with my Ck3510. Will spin in low or medium. Loaded tearsand 800 lb tiller on back

Yep, by definition if it won't spin the tires EVEN if loaded tires, EVEN if has proper ballast on the rear, EVEN if in 4WD in low range then it is "broken". Either the hydrostatic transmission relief valve is set low or the wheels are spinning within the tires. We just need the OP to tell us what he found out.

I've had it about 2 months it's about 4 year's old. It doesn't load up or stall it just stops moving forward..it will stall out if you hold the brakes.. 330 hours.

Curious... if he is moving at speed and hits the brakes hard, does tractor keep moving?
Starting to see a pattern here...

If the tyres (tires) were spinning on the rims they would be flat. Obviously they are not.

No sir. There is plenty of times where the rim spins in the tire and the tire is not flat. This usually is with loaded tires and the pressure is too low. Not flat But low pressure.

 

[Alien]

It has happened to me. As soon as the tyre spins they lose air. Low pressure - flat same thing.

Tubeless.

Rimguard has shown to be a good bead lube. There are/is threads on TBN documenting the phenom. But the fronts that are unloaded should spin on the ground.

I remember a few threads that had people saying the 4x4 was broken since the tires were not spinning (turn out the rims were spinning).

I am one. I was climbing one of my hills not long after getting the machine. Too new to know about difflock and other common stuff. Got about halfway up the hill and it let go, rolling downhill, backwards. No drive, no traction, no brakes, no control. Got to the bottom without hitting anything. Thinking it was a fluke, I tried it again. Same result. Turned around and backed up the hill.

Dealer thought the trans was toast for some reason.

Turned out one rear wheel was spinning inside the rim, lubed by the beet squeezin's. When that one slipped, the differential lost all traction and just rolled freely towards gravity. The single brake pad inside the trans had no effect which is why I advocate real brakes at the wheels (like cars and trucks) on these things.

 

[SPYDERLK]

I remember. So that was you. That was quite a few yrs back! ~15?

Yep,... with an open differential, all it takes is one to slip.

 

[OzarkChris]

Have we checked fluid levels & filter? Sure sounds like it might be running short on fluid.

 

[ruffdog]

OP said it will stall if the brakes are on.....something is slipping after the brakes. Like other's have stated, a tire slipping?

Got a ck3510 hst shouldn't this thing spin the tires when you go onto a pile of dirt or gravel

Gear transmission it would spin the tires. Hydraulic transmission your pump determines if it will spin. You lose power with Hydraulics when loader is in down pressure and transmission is maximizing its power. Low Hydraulic fluid will also cause this. I used a Kabota with hydro once upon a time. To back up on a trailer I had to hold pedal all the way down going up ramps. Once on trailer had to quickly release the pedal because it sped up on level part of trailer.
I own a Workmaster 50 gear driven for that reason. First gear is same speed at any power level.

He probably got a really good deal because of previous owner getting sick of lack of power?

 

[Big Blue Florida]

I may have seen our OP outside an LS dealer.












kidding

 

[K5lwq]

He probably put air in his tires and is enjoying his new tractor.
