Hi my ford 4610 has trouble starting off in gears higher than low one i adjusted the biting point on the clutch but it didnt do anything any ideas?

Can you be more specific with describing your problem? Does the engine die, does the tractor shudder..... I flunked Mind Reading 101-ask my wife!

Well the engine stays running but goin on flat ground it takes a lot of revs to get rolling as if the handbrake was on(but i know its not stuck on)

 

[Jerry/MT]

What rpm are you starting out with? Is the clutch slipping? Do you smell anything like a burned clutch? Any sign of oil dripping from the bell housing? How do you know the brakes are not stuck?

 

[tractorboy3011]

Idleing rpm but to get moving needs high rpm.no smell or oil.i know the brakes arent stuck on as it acts normal in lowest gear.

What are you talking about regarding "...high rpm to get moving..."? Idle is about 700-800 rpm So what does it take to get you moving? max rpm is ~ 2200rpm so you have between say 800 to 2200 rmp working range.

What transmission do you have? Shuttle or standard 8x2? Sent from my iPhone using TractorByNet

Standard but its 4 gears a range(hi,lo,reverse)

8 forward and 2 reverse total correct? Also do all gears other than 1st slip or is it just certain gears?
