555A no movement

Post by Markleuckel » Wed Jul 26, 2023 1:24 pm

Hello all new to the site looked through about 26 pages and searched for good hydraulics good trans pressure. But, no movement. It's a highlift tracks. I started with the transmission filter and trans oil check. So what happened was I pushed some trash into a hole and back up to get a few more little logs, put it in neutral and went to throw a few little pieces in, got back on and put it in forward 1 didn't move.

Look for the simple first... May just be your shift linkage has come undone.

So the shift linkage as in I can move the shifter to forward and reverse and see the linkage move under the floor pan. Also when I move to forward 1 and reverse1 the motor bogs down. I won't be back at the machine until Monday august 31 2023.

Ok I check linkage and didn't see anything loose or disconnected. When I love the levers, it moves all the way into the two blocks on top of the transmission.

Checked the linkage everything seems to be moving correctly and fast enough in and out. I did start it let it run and warm up to operating temperature, hydraulics are great, still no movement but I did notice as I was moving through the gears usually I use the decelerator pedal, this time I just went through forward and reverse shifting 123 forward 123 reverse. It goes seen like I have a bit of something motor bogs down a bit but, no movement. I did see there are summer screens located towards the back of the transmission pick up tube I believe it was called. I tried to find it in the manual. No luck. I also went through the manuals diagnostic as far as I could before I needed to check pressures. I believe that will be my next step unless I can find a savvy person in south east Missouri. 😁

I also lost forward and reverse on my 555. I also had gauge in white and steering wasn't great at all. So I did as you did and pulled the suction screen out clogged except about 2"x3" cut out cleaned it off and out a d put it in the sonic cleaner for a bit
and also changed the transmission filter under the seat. I proceeded to clean and wipe out more of the bottom and discovered a roller bearing what at first I thought was a dowel, :roll: then found two more and another roller bearing. I went to the tool box and grabbed a magnet and found a big gland nut and also found a spacer round and flat.
