The good news is I just acquired a 520H the bad news is the trans seems to be stuck it's disengaged (it will roll free forward and reverse) but the linkage arm on the top is stuck it won't move in either direction I don't want to force it.. any help would be greatly appreciated

Where is the motion control lever stuck? Does it appear to be in neutral? If you can start it, the linkage must be in the neutral position in order to activate the neutral safety switch. With the engine off, I would start by disconnecting the linkage from the cam plate under the seat and see if you can move the speed control arm. Then try moving the rest of the linkage until you find where it is binding.

The cam on top of the trans pump gets lots of wear and digs into the cam plate. Check there.

      foot pedal conversion for hydro drive
      By cheesegrader
      About a decade ago, I bought a conversion kit here to remove the column drive lever and convert to a foot pedal for a 520h.
      I would like to convert a second tractor, and I need to replace one of the linkage bars on the first one that has cracked, but I can't find the vendor any more.
      Does anyone remember who made this awesome mod, and where I can find them?

      8 spd Transmission for sale
      By giant_g2
      Not sure on specific model. This 8 spd came attached to a plow I bought. It had some water in it for a couple weeks according to the prior owner. I drained it, sloshed some diesel in it, drained that, then filled with fresh oil. Spinning the input shaft by hand, I can see the axels turn. Hasn't leaked any oil. I'm not really interested in shipping, so I'd prefer local sales.

      Bolens 1256
      By D_Mac
      Going to possibly pick up a bolens 1256 that's been sitting outside for sometime. My question to any of you who have had one or knows about them is how to get them to free wheel. I would need to push it from a field to a driveway. From what I have read there is a pin on the right hand side, on the hub of the rear wheel that you pull out to get the wheel to free spin. Is there any other tow or dump valve on these machines? Also any thoughts on this model in general. Never had one before. Also never have had a wisconsin engine either. What should I expect?

      HELP! D-Series Clutch
      By BuffaloD200
      '74 D-180
       
      My friction disc in gone on my clutch.  I saw the old post about making a new friction disc, so I'm not concerned about that.
      I managed to remove the front clutch plate and double v-belt pulley.  But I can't separate the two.  When I took the assembly off the spiraloc washer popped off on its own.  I HAVE READ THE MANUALS.
      So I should be able to just remove the pulley from the front clutch and continue with step 4.  The v-belt pulley is loose as all hell and flops around like a dead fish.  It seems to be hung up on a ring or bearing race.  
      So my thoughts are grab a BFH or sparky the blue tip wrench.
      Is there an unpublished step 3.5, or some trick?
