Kubota L4802 Rough Shifting

[Ridersupfarm]

My brand new L4802 is impossible to shift 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th without clashing gears and downshifting is even worse. The dealer's service manager tells me that these tractors have transmissions that are rough shifting. Even if I believe that, this tractor is almost impossible to shift down unless the tractor is brought to a complete stop which renders the machine practically useless. I've adjusted the clutch to provide more release and still have the problem. The dealer is sending a mechanic out but I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this issue and how it was resolved. Thank you in advance.

Have you read your tractors operators manual about shifting gears? For example, it could be something simmilar:

Main Gear Shift Lever & Range Gear Shift Lever
The main gear shift and the range gear shift can only be
shifted when tractor is completely stopped and clutch is
depressed.
To change speeds, press the clutch pedal completely
down and stop the tractor before attempting to
proceed with speed change.

This is my 4th tractor and the first time I've experienced this problem. Of course you must come to a stop before shifting from hi to lo range or visa versa. I'm referring to normal up shifting and down shifting which, by their very nature, are done with the tractor in motion. That's why manufacturers produce synchronized transmissions.
