Never did hear anything back from dealer, topped off hydraulic fluid by adding approx 1/2qt, hasn't happened since but it was very intermittent originally. Makes me cringe every time I think of some of the more tenuous situations I've had it in prior had this happened then.

Left. lowest setting, both left and right seem aligned fairly close to rear hole. Right, lowest setting, raising lift aligns pin head and front arm easily. Maybe there is something off with pin alignment. Thank you for your suggestions.

Second time is the charm, while looking again to explain why it didn't work first time... that should work, and it did! Problem I had originally is the front arm hitting the loader frame attach point before aligning with the pin. Backing out 060 provided some additional rotation of rear arm...

BX2680 Mower Lift Linkage came disconnected on both left/right sides at the pivot point between front and rear arms, right side pivots enough I can reconnect them, left side not enough movement to allow reconnect even after backing the rear limit bolt all the way out. - How would you reconnect...

After speaking with my dealer sales person, I have a theory with nothing to substantiate it: low on hydraulic fluid (about 1/2qt, no idea where it went), going down steep hill, perhaps the hydraulic pickup unported? After I got to the bottom of the hill, the transmission began working again...

Transmission fluid, behind the seat

Just below dipstick, could still see oil

Additional info: I found this morning, hydraulic fluid is low. Related?

Thanks for the videos, not familiar with Tractor Mike. I got comfortable operating on steep hills fairly quickly, and never sideways! Seatbelt and ROPS always.

I briefly was able to see the rear wheels, and they appeared to be turning, there were wide skid marks though all the way down the hill. It felt as if the wheels were free wheeling, and definitely no braking action. Your latter description more closely matches my experience. Based on first...

Nailed it! I had not changed the front drive lever yet it was disengaged. Consistent with your diagnosis, there are skid marks down the hill, assuming from rear wheels. Rear tires are filled with water, and 300lb ballast box on rear, I would have thought there was enough rear weight. Surprising...

BX2680 with mid mower. My property is fairly steep, requires 4WD tractor, hasn’t been an issue until few days ago. Driving downhill, it was as if the transmission was disconnected, and the tractor just free wheeled down this steep hill, brake did nothing either; I was along for a sled ride that...
