B2920 slow

Thanks all.

Ericher69, I am not sure how to really answer that. Meaning I do not know how to get a best guess. If I had to guess I would say like 20 degrees (or half of a 45).

If you where in Mid range then it should not slow down as you are saying.

I pull a 5ft back blade full of wet heavy snow and no problems

Where your RPM's dropping when you noticed the slowdown (like the engine was being worked)

I worked on the tractor some today, and went up the same incline. The RPMS did not drop. Maybe it is just me being used to "fast" on the BX versus "mid" on the B2920.

It did not seem as bad today, so maybe I am just getting used to it haha.

Also, I found the source of the "racket" when going up these hills. I was afraid it was from the engine, but it turns out to be the quick hitch pins on the FEL.

I had the unit stationary, and I heard the exact same sound while operating the backhoe today. So I was able to get off the unit and trace it down to the pin. If I put my hand on it the noise stopped I read on here someone wrapped theirs in duct tape and that eliminated the metal on metal chatter.

Which pin, and what was the noise like? I hear a little rattle/tink noise when driving on bumpy ground, or when the FEL shakes after dumping a load. It sound like someone gently shaking a few small nails in a metal coffee can. Very quiet, but enough to catch my attention. I haven't had time to trace it yet, but this could be the same noise.

Mine was more of "clanking". It was the large silver pins. Maybe lift the bucket off the ground, and rev up the rpms a little, or slow down a lot, something to make some vibrations. Then put your hands on the different parts to pinpoint it.

Also, I notices the metal hyrdo lines that cross horizontally (I think it is a group of four lines) across the bucket rattle a little. That may be what you are hearing. I was thinking of getting hose protectors to slip over those, but it is not high on my to do list.

Seems odd, i don't ever feel mine bog even with the bh on or pushing snow in mid range. Most of the time im at 2k or less rpm. It doesn't even bog in high range, the only difference is you hear the hst under load more. I would check your fluid levels. I've gone up some very steep hills with the bh and a full fel in mid range too.
