Hi Hurst,
There is a lot to be said for the comments that Gene has made. Hydrostat repair is often considered a speciality job. That said, I know where you're coming from on cost. Something sounds a little queer though. You say that reverse keeps getting faster, and forward slower, and you can't adjust any more? You aren't simply adjusting the pedal or control linkage are you? With a hydrostat, you are just moving the swash plate in an axial piston pump, and the linkage must be centered. You may actually be able to move the pump plate further than the linkage would normally allow when properly adjusted. I know this is the case in my skidsteer. Check that out before condemning the pump. Also, since you seem interested in these things, I'll make one other suggestion to you. Contact mother Deere, send them some money, and they will send you an excellent reference publication titled John Deere, FOS (Fundamentals of Service) Hydraulics. The have many FOS books. I have Hydraulics and Electrical Systems. I know there are many more. I've never been a big fan of Deere equipment, but they do publish and excellent general reference training manual. It might be some of the best money you ever spend. Just a thought to keep in mind, if you don't already have a copy. Have fun. Rod

To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
