Hi
I just found a PM from you saying you'd sent me an email -from heppeone@gmail.com - but I've gone thru my emails and haven't been able to find it. Maybe you could send it again - this time send it direct by email to rbjs@comast.net so if there are any crossed wires at OTT it won't get snagged.
You asked a very good question on OTT in Laurenf's recent thread about L4850 slippage in gear.
I've had several Kubotas with the Ever Clutch - (actually a somewhat beefier hydraulic shuttle with a fancy new name). These tractors had a single clutch (dry) for the pto only. Travel is all by hydraulic clutch packs
I didn't know that for while Kubota still offered the Hydraulic Shuttle model without the EC. I looked it up in my WSM and sure enough there's a version of the L4850 without EC but that has a hydraulic shuttle and dual dry clutches.
Confused yet? I seem to be getting that way easier these days........
Take care, Dick B
