I finally removed the Mower rear link from the frame by jacking up the floorboard. This allowed me to rotate the link arm upwards far enough so the triangular plate would pass through the triangular hole in the frame. This was not an easy fix as I thought I would possibly break something else...
Stuck Pin Gauge
I thought that maight be the last resort. I have a welding shop nearby so I guess I give it a try. Thee bend in the pin is so slight but just enough for it to be stuck tight. Also, maybe heating the collar will open it up enough to allow the pin to come out. Thanks for input.
The pin gauge for my scalp wheels are slightly bent and will not move up or down for me to change the highth of the wheels. What is the best way to correct this problem? See item #060 in attahment.
When I try to get off the tractor with the engine running it shuts down. I have the brake set and the drive in neutral. Also, it will not start unless I pull back hard on the PTO lever. Are these issues related? What could be the probllem? How do I fix it?
