I replaced all the hydraulic lines under the seat which operate the front bucket so it wont leak all over the place while I test the machine to see what is wrong and why it doesn't move. Started the engine put the reverser in forward put the tansmission in first gear and the machin...

Jim thank you for your reply I am not sure yet if the coupler between the engine and reverser is broken. It seems power is getting to the transmission. Is it possible that the filter for the reverser is bad/clogged and making that screeching low oil pump noise??? Still testing changing all the hydra...

Scott I also made sure the oil in the reverser is full I used hydraulic 10 weight oil that is what seemed to be in there. Its full still makes a growling screeching sound when I use the reverse and forward level on the dash board. thanks Dale

Scott thank you for your reply I am an expert mechanic however as an overall person who can fix anything it is the guys who specifically have knowledge with certain items like this JD 350 who i need to converse with including yourself who has past experience with this cridder. I comprehend mechanics...
