I brought my new MF 1428 with FEL to Vermont where there is no real dealer support. The tractor with the exception of the hydro has been great but if you can't start your tractor it is not a tractor but just a red barn decoration. I cannot start it because I cannot I cannot get the machine into neutral. This is an ongoing problem that no one seems to understand. If it gets turned off anywhere but in neutral of if the lever gets bumped out of neutral while the machine is off the hydro unit will not go back into neutral. Sometimes cycling the FEL valve and hydro pedals will suddenly let it slide back into neutral. Other times: No Dice. The tractor only starts in neutral. MF's website is the pits and where I bought it from is not much help. Does anybody have any thoughts please please. My wife wanted me to get a green tractor and I am gettin the "I told you so's" while I am getting the evil eye for not getting the driveway plowed or the manure dealt with.
