Are the hydraulics for the rear, post clutch on these? I was having a bugger of a time getting the mowing deck to lift, mine drives even with the lever in the middle position, so I ride the clutch a lot. I know the front loader hydraulics run straight of the front of the engine, so they are always there. ------------- 1957 D17 Diesel w/ M&W Pistons |

Use the hand clutch to operate your hydraulics. The foot clutch will not allow the hydraulics to work and riding the clutch is NOT a good idea. ------------- '49 G, '54 WD45, '55 CA, '56 WD45D, '57 WD45, '58 D14, '59 D14, '60 D14, '63 D15D, '66 D15II, '66 D21II, '67 D17IV, '67 D17IVD, '67 190XTD, '73 620, '76 185, '77 175, '84 8030, '85 6080 |

By hand clutch you mean the big two speed lever on the right? That's the one I'm referring to when I said lever. The thing moves as soon as I let the foot clutch up, not with full force but enough to be risky. If I let it run with the hand clutch in the middle position it eventually stops moving but it's travelled 50-100 feet during that time. But you are confirming the foot clutch affects the rear hydraulics? ------------- 1957 D17 Diesel w/ M&W Pistons |

| Use the brakes to stop movement. It will release better after oil warms up. But don't use foot clutch to east tractor along. MACk |

Yes pressing the foot clutch will stop the hydraulics. Same with the PTO ------------- Charlie '48 B, '51 CA, '56 WD45 '61 D17, '63 D12, '65 D10 , '68 One-Ninety XTD |
