Kubota B7500 - Engine runs fine but will not move.

k3v1n · Mar 31, 2020

I came across a used B7500. The engine starts and runs just fine but I have been unable to get it to move forward/backward.
Hydraulic fluid looks good. I'm new to tractors and don't know a whole lot. Any suggestions on what to check next would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Or if it's in range at all. Sometimes the lever can fall between H and L and not quite engage the gear.

Check out the drive shaft & make sure the connections are good.

I'll double-check the Hyd oil and make sure it's full. Last time a checked it was fine. It was in High, has a clutch pedal. There was a little play in it.

Should have at least one inch or more free play maybe clutch is slipping or burnt out...... Does it make any noise when you try to move it

Does the engine lug down then you try? If so the brakes might be locked. If not the charge pump in trans might be bad or the bypass valve might be stuck open.
