HST Not Returning to Neutral

[doesleap]

I have an MX 5200 HST. Under normal operation, when I take my foot off the HST pedal, the tractor stays put in neutral. Lately, however, the tractor will creep forward. I have lubricated all of the HST linkages, hoping that would do the trick, but the tractor still drifts forward. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Not familiar with your model but all HST tractors that I have worked on have an adjustment for neutral.

Adjustment procedure will be in WSM.

Do you have the WSM (aka Service Manual)

On my L5030 that I had, I had a dry pivot bearing, and a weak shock, on the linkage under the cab.
