Howdy folks, I blew a hydraulic hose on my bucket drive which caused a bunch of issues. I replaced the hose, refilled the hydraulic reservoirs and bled all the air out of the system. My three point hitch and my bucket cylinders all function perfectly. The other issue is now with the hydrostatic drive. The tractor won't move well at all. It is very sluggish and has almost no push or pull. It doesn't matter what gear range (Hi, Lo, or Mid) and it doesn't matter what gear either (1, 2, 3, etc). The clutch appears to engage (RPM's drop a little when letting it out) but it just has no go. What have I missed or what else can I service to solve this problem. I don't have a manual for this machine and I am at a remote site so I am not sure what to do next. Any thoughts?

Probably too late to help but there is a lever down on the right side below and to the right of the steering column that you should flip back-and-forth. I periodically have that problem (maybe 2-3 times in last 5 years) but flipping it corrects the problem for me!
