Seized hand throttle L3800

[Mountain Hill]

Had a good day plowing our latest 30 cm of snow. Just went out to park tractor, and Hand Throttle is stuck, tractor rev at 1000 rpm. It s dark now so it can wait till morning. Would like to hear any suggested fixes!

WD-40 or something similar.

The hand throttle was seized on my L3750 when I bought it. I had seized internally. What a job getting to the part, dash had to come out but I finally fixed it without any new parts.

Our -20 c got the best of me, handle was fine, put torch on the pivot pin attached to throttle rod, a quick thaw, any things are fine. Need a larger tool box to carry now!!
