Couple 2615 questions

marvin494 · Jun 4, 2016

First off I apparently had the factory drawbar stolen from my tractor. This is the bar that goes into the receiver type hitch at the rear axle. I have spoken to two different dealers and they both quoted me $230-$240 for a new one. I find it hard to believe that a flat bar with 3 holes in it could bring that kind of money. So my question is does anyone know if this is correct? If so there's no way I'm going to pay that. Does anyone have one they could take some measurements of for me so I could try to make one or have one made?

The second thing is my foot throttle is sticking. Is there a place I should try to lube the cable to help it out?

Thanks for any help you can give

Check out your local TSC store. They have a couple different types or you can probably get one made for a reasonable price. Check Amazon for tractor drawbars. I saw a bunch of straight ones there for $150 down to about $50.

I had a 2615HST so no foot throttle but should be fairly easy to look underneath. Probably a grease fitting there that was missed. If no fitting then lube any pivot point that moves while pushing the throttle.
