Hey all,
So I've just switched from the city to a small farm, and have just purchased a 1996 Belarus 572A - my first tractor. After spending five hours playing with the batteries, I've finally got it cranked up and moving.
Unfortunately I can only seem to get reverse and 1st gear working. Am I missing something? I move the shift upwards/downwards from centre with the clutch in, but then I release the clutch and nothing happens. Revs are up but there's no movement, like it's still in neutral.
It's the "newer model" shift referred to in the manual - i.e. there's no knob to turn (I kinda wish there was...), rather you move the shift to the left and then up for high range, down for low range, then select gear in a |-|-| pattern.
It's also kinda hard to feel these multiple junctions with the shift... anyone else experienced this? Any ideas on how to get the "touch?
Cheers
Ritchie
