L3302 bogging down?

[LittleLighthouseAcres]

Just finished my 50 hour service and can’t decide if I’m being overly critical and the tractor has always done this or if this is abnormal and new.

At 2000 RPMs in high gear on flat ground if you accelerate quickly, the tractor bogs down to 1500 and then climbs back to 2000. Once you’re up to speed, it’s fine but any slow down and then acceleration you get a bog down.

In medium gear the bog is like 150 rpm.

100% normal.

Thank you! It’s one of those things after you do any work on the tractor you start wondering, did it always do this?

My L2501 acts pretty much the same in that situation. Definitely a shock when I first noticed it but now I just accelerate slower if I’m in high which is very rare. I’m assuming it’s a side effect of the HST vs gear driven/manual

I’m going to have to try to replicate this.

I have only had mine in “high gear” once…..

(When I was doing “time trials” down my street when I first got it. )
