My clutch on my Kubota MX4800 is not acting right. I am not a mechanic at all! Tractor starts fine but when I go to push in the clutch pedal nothing happens. It just grinds when I try to put it in gear. The tractor is 11 years old and I’m in great condition. It has about 300 hours on it. It is garage kept and most parts look like new.

Did it sit for a long time without being used? Without the clutch pedal blocked down to keep the friction plate separated from the flywheel? The friction plate may be rusted to the flywheel.

There are suggestions on how to fix that on this forum so search for something like ”stuck clutch”
