    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    WT - Disconnect the F-N-R cable from the link on the transmission and try to shift the F-N-R lever. It probably will not move. Then disconnect the cable at the top where it connects to the F-N-R lever. The lever will now move and putting it in "N" will allow the tractor to start. You will find...

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    Sorry whitetiger, I just now saw your post. You were correct. That cable was knotted up and frayed. There were just a few strands holding it together. As you can see, I did replace it. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the foresight to do the other things you listed. I wish I would have seen you post...

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    I have an update.... Pulled the casing back under the dash and the cable was shredded inside the cover. I got a new cable and now I have to figure out how to get my big hands in there to change it out. Fishing it through the holes was easy. Getting my hands in there to loosen the bolts... not so...

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    Well I called the dealership...they said to split it and fix it would run $2500-$3000 depending on if it’s clutch or synchronizers or both. But before I bring it in they wanted me to pull the casing apart at the ends. I finally got the time to do it about 20 minutes ago with my brother-in-law...

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    Like maybe it's stuck inside the transmissions casing? When I was watching the clutch underneath, the linkage and arm, they all move freely with no issues and at the same time. It's smooth and not clunky or jerky. Has the same firm pressure it's always had. It's not loose or anything. I know...

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    Well, the tractor was used and I honestly don't remember if I got the manual or not. I've had it almost two years and I purchased it right after I bought the land to build my house...at which point it decided to start raining, and raining, and raining. We had two hurricanes come through a few...

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    HI Dave, Thanks for jumping in! Yes, my wife and I both took a wheel and turned them forward and then backward at the same time.

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    Correct, My shifter with gears 1-4 is on the right side of the cab. They move freely from one gear to the next. My shuttle F-N-R (top to bottom) is on the left side of the column. That is the issue. The tractor was in 4x4 when I shut it off. When I went to start it back up, I thought I put...

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    Thanks Dave, I’ll start looking at this in the morning. Another thing I didn’t mention that may or may not make a difference...I was in 4WD when I shut it off. When my limited knowledge hit the wall today on trouble shooting, I had to move the tractor out of the way. When I went to pull it, she...

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    I went out to try and take a look at the cables. When I did I noticed that the clutch cable when not pressed has a little "give" to it. The shuttle cable is as tights as a banjo string. I mean it is tight top and bottom.

    M7040 Hydraulic shuttle stuck

    I have a 2007 Kubota M7040 DTC. It has around 1600hrs on it. I was out working with it yesterday. Stopped to take a break and when I got back in, I couldn't get it to shift into any gear; so it wouldn't start. It was parked to where it was leaning to the right so I thought that maybe I left it...
