Hello,
I own a 2011 Kubota RTV900 UTV and I am having issues with the transmission shift selector jumping out of a forward position such as low, medium or high back into neutral. I just recently picked up the unit and do not have a WSM. I am thinking there are cable adjustments that lead from the shifter back to the transmission. Could the shift cables get out of adjustment and cause the transmission range selector to jump out of position such as low, medium or high range?
Any help would be appreciated. R. Seigworth

Cable adjustment or, more likely a bent shifter. If it has been jumping out more than a few times it will likely need new gears inside as they soon wear out from slipping out of engagement while under load.

Thank you. I will pursue the cable adjustment first and go from there. I think my next purchase will be a shop manual for my RTV900.
