 Topic: 7030 shift/clutch trouble
Posted: 22 Mar 2024 at 8:51pm |
|
Hi, I have a 7030 power director. It won't go into gear when I start it in the cold. If I leave it in the heated shop or leave it outside in the summer, it will go into gear like it should. Length of time sitting doesnt seem to matter, just temp. I can shut it off, put it in gear, start it, and go. After running it a while, it will work properly but I want it to work properly right away. Is there a bad seal in clutch valve? I would love to get pointed in the right direction so I can fix it. Thank you

First thing I'd check is clutch cable adjustment

Ive never had a power director in the 7 or 8000 series
All mine have been power shifts but i think the same principle applies to both. Theres a procedure in the service manual to adjust the trans brake. I start at the beginning and do every step. They work flawlessly

One important thing to remember, once the transmission brake has been properly adjusted, it use to stop the transmission, not the whole tractor. Always bring the tractor to a complete stop, before engaging the transmission brake.

It does it with both shifters but not the floor shifter. I will look in the book on the adjustment. I was just thinking it was weird to only do it when its cold temperatures. I never stop the tractor with the trans brake. Kinda came out of nowhere. Thanks for the replies, I appreciate it!

They always work better when warmed up. Still it should work cold. You are probably on the verge with adjustment.
