Just bought a 180 and was wondering if it has a hand clutch. I'm use to my dads 185 that has a t/a handle that you can put the tractor in neutral with. Tried it on mine but it doesn't go into neutral. Don't know if it's not working properly or it's not equipped with this option. TIA

Shane - should be 2 levers on the right side of the dash. Inside one is the Power Director (hand clutch) and the outside one is the throttle. On the Power Director, forward is high side and rear is low side with neutral in the middle. If you have checked in the last day or so with the cold weather neutral may be "dragging" due to cold hydraulic oil causing it to creep and seem like it's not in neutral. Warm the tractor up and see if it still does it. Check that your hydraulic compartment is full of the proper type of oil (trans/hydraulic fluid). Left dipstick from the gear shift when sitting in the seat. Report back after this and let us know as if you can't find neutral after it being warmed up others with more knowledge of what the problem might be can chime in.
Welcome to the Allis forum! Where in Central MO are you? Mike

Thanks guys will do. If it ever warms up here I'll try it out. If there is something wrong would it still stay in gear? It shifts to the high side just fine but when placed in neutral position it won't stop.
