2002 Kubota L3710 GST. Just changed trans hydraulic fluid.
The tractor will not move unless you press hard on the clutch. So if you select a low range gear, put in forward it will not move as it should (unless you press hard on clutch).
If you select a higher range gear you can hear spinning noise and it will slip / not move.
The hydraulics work (bucket functions, 3pt lifts properly, pto works).
The clutch has never been adjusted. I'm wanting to know if this is a sure fire description of a bad clutch or something else. I am mechanically inclined however no real tractor repair other than bringing an old ford 8n back to life. Please help with any tips pointers or advice. I am trying to decide do I take this thing to kubota and let them run wild or do I get busy with a couple of buddies and tear into this thing. I would need to buy a good repair service manual (the real one is 300.00).
Kubota gives me a rough estimate of around 4000.00 to replace clutch if thats what it is. Thank you.
