B2150 speed lever

How "stiff" should the speed control lever be on my B2150? Seems to take some effort to move but could be normal? I don't use the tractor a whole lot so maybe it needs to be lubed?

I would definitely start with the lube - then look at the linkages.

My Speed Control Lever always works better with some lube.

Just greased it the other day.

Good point on the linkage, I'll check it out & lube all the moving pivot points.

Checked linkage (ok) & lubed all the pivot points ..... Bingo! Working like new. Did the same to the bucket & backhoe valve controls.
