Tractor
Kubota L185, L2650
Tractor is fairly new to me, first winter with it and temps have been 12-30 degrees F for the last 10 days.....

Kubota L2650, Shuttle Shift, 4x4. 2500 Hours. This may be an "everclutch" model but it is new to me and I'm still learning this tractor.

factory front end loader, has prompt response and full range lift and curl

tiller on the 3 point hitch, prompt response, goes up and down great


Hydraulic oil in sight bubble seems to be a little full... maybe a little above the 3/4 mark.... (I think the fluid may be some of whatever was in there when I got it and some tractor supply premium fluid)


Now, the tractor will go forward and backward in low range gear 1 but gear 2, 3 or 4 the tractor becomes labored and is obviously not proper.

High range we dont move at all in any gear. I have let it warm up for 20 minutes and moved all my shifter leavers, high low range, 4 wheel drive selector...


I wonder if this fluid is the problem? I am scared that I have a more serious problem. I had a FEL lift cylinder go out in early November and my fluid got low and the tractor would not move. I fixed the cylinder and topped the fluid off and everything seemed great until this week.

Any ideas are welcomed, also following other similar threads,

thanks

Maybe the brakes are frozen on? If it is a clutch tractor I wouldn’t see the fluid level impacting it in that regard. My last tractor I just traded, a NH WM55, the grease would freeze up on the brake pedal at this temp and the brakes were hard to release. Just a thought. Did you have it sitting with the parking brake set?

I wish it was the brakes but I'm afraid that it is not. I believe this may have the everclutch. Does anyone know if the everclutch requires Kubota fluid? Has anyone ever worked on one?
