anyone split a 4115? dealer tested machine, to find out everything is fine. next step is to split tractor to find problem. I will attempt it, just wondering if there is anything i should be cautious of? thanks!

I assume this is a hydro transmission?
The dealer ensured there were no linkage problems. Did they give you any idea of what could be wrong in the transmission?

Yes its a hydro. Dealer says will be something obvious when splitting tractor. ( eg. spun collar ) Thanks for reply!

My father in law had an issue with his 4115 similar to yours and it turned out to be the bracket that holds the hydro pedal pivot underneath. The MMM had rubbed it enough to break it and we welded the broken piece back in place with clearence for the deck.

Thanks for your reply, but not in this case!

Are all the wires to the pedals connected? Check long gear lever to make sure it is turning the shaft it is connected to.

No wires, it's not a eHydro machine.

Wouldn't the first step be putting a guage on the pump to determine if it is putting out the required pressure ( after checking fluid level and possible filter blockage ) ? I would not be so quick to tear it down without a closer inspection. These things are practically bullet proof.

My bad. Thanks Kenny.

Dealer did put gage on it,to find out everything is correct.

That's not good. Does the shift linkage feel like it is locating the right detents. With the guage in place monitoring the pressure could they change the pressure by either foot or hand linkage movement ?
Keep us imformed. There are alot of these tractors on the market. I know at shop rates it would not be a cheap fix. I would get the shop manual, study carefully and start surgery. Something has to be obvious in the control function if the pump has correct pressure.
One more thing... makes no difference if it is in four wheel drive or two ? Try the axle lock. Some of these points may help in locating the problem area, maybe less disassembly. Good luck.

Being a 4115 owner I am curious if you found the problem out with your tractor. Larry
