Hey Prefect1948, Thanks for stopping by to check out the video. It’s appreciated. Hopefully you get your issue sorted out.. I got tired of having my tractor dig the lawn up and it was frustrating to know it never was set up correctly from new. Take Care. 👍🏼
Hey Hey Hey, How are you doing? I have a good one for you today. Take your bucket and leave it outside. Now, back up the tractor with the 120 arms still connected into your garage. Now unfasten the arms from the tractor and back it up. Leave the arms with the stand in the upright position overnight. This a lot of times is the way I leave mine because of work( Maintenance ) I do with mine. The next day, when I go in the garage the arms have collapsed. I need yours to do the same so you can recommend the best way by yourself to line things back up on the tractor. Keep up the good work.
Hey Brother WAT, Thanks for stopping by the channel. I like challenges like this but a question for you on this, What’s the difference whether the bucket is on or off the 120 loader? If the rear of your loader is dropping enough so you can’t get the loader onto the tractor support brackets this sounds like your two lift cylinders are bleeding off. I leave my loader off my tractor all winter (Dec 1 - Apr 1) and it doesn’t drop at all. I’m wondering if you have an issue with the seals in your lift cylinder? What’s your thoughts?
Thanks for this simple fix that I may not have thought to check. Always wondered why I was ripping up the lawn when making even gradual turns. Will fix mine ASAP.
Hello BBQING Thanks for stopping in to check the video out. Hopefully this helps you with your issue. I could never figure out why mine didn’t turn very well, especially when I had the loader off. Turns on a dime now.. Good Luck and Take Care !!
Thanks for stopping by the channel to check out the videos. It’s greatly appreciated. I’m glad you were able to get your tractor sorted out also. 👍🏼 Take Care
My tractor has these exact symptoms. I tried to make the adjustment you demonstrated here but no luck. Am I missing something? I've made several turns on the adjustment nut. I am assuming you made the adjustment with the brakes off since the wheels were turning. Thanks.
I had a similar problem with mine as in the diff lock was on, but instead of needing to adjust my brake, the diff lock pedal linkage at the transmission was almost disconnected causing it to engage the diff lock halfway. And after i had pushed the link in and put a clip on it, it no longer locked the rear in 2-wheel drive but still does it in 4-wheel drive, I don't know if it has something to do with gearing or what because the diff lock was disengage but yet it was still locked. I would like to know just so I know that nothing is wrong. Thanks for the video
Hey ejt_ 🤔 Thanks for watching. Hmmmm That’s very strange. It doesn’t lock now in 2wd but it still locks up in 4wd. The 4wd being engaged shouldn’t lock the rear into Posi. Somethings definitely going on there.
@@SometimeIsNow Only had my 2015 1025r for a couple weeks. Was starting to think I had made a mistake. After making your adjustment and turning up the implement pressure just a bit, this is the tractor I had hoped for. Thanks again..........Now a subscriber.....
@@MrEd-kk7uj That’s Excellent !! I’m glad the video helped and you’re finally happy with your 1025R. My tractor came new like this and I couldn’t figure out why it wanted to go straight, even on the asphalt driveway. I kept thinking the little lever by your left foot was sticking. Then I laid under the tractor and started looking into how the brake actually worked along with the posi lock. Now you have me intrigued on the implement pressure. Thanks for the sub and your support. Take Care 👍🏼
My 2025r arrived 2wks ago and once I saw your video it had me thinking and wondering why my front end is getting pushed as it is turned instead of full control the movement of the tractor. I hope you can understand what I am saying. Either way I blamed it on all the weight I had on the back but when I filled my tires the other day I noticed that they both turned which threw me back to your video. I plan to take care of this issue in a day or so! Thanx Again for making this video!!!!!
@@wraith3951 Congrats on getting the 2025R. That’s a very nice tractor.. 👍🏼 Hopefully it’s something as simple as it’s not unlocking in the rear diff. Until I figured out the brake was adjusted just alittle to much It drove me nuts for months. I couldn’t figure out why the tractor wouldn’t turn, even on the blacktop driveway. It’d just push straight like there was to much weight in the weight box. Let me know what you find out. Take Care 🤙🏼
@@SometimeIsNow went to work on it this morning. Turns out (or so I think) when I installed the 3rd Function Valve and rear SCV Kits I took off the left side panels right above the rear diff lock. Somewhere along the way I reinstalled the panel/ cover wrong and it was the culprit. Of course I didn’t figure this out until AFTER I am in the tractor and let my adjustment all the way out with no results. It was a good informative experience so I know for next time. Thanx all the same!
Hey Gold Country Trapping. Thanks for stopping by the channel to check out the video. It’s greatly appreciated. I drove my tractor for I don’t know how long with this issue and finally thought, Somethings not right. LOL Take Care and stay tuned for the single point connection video. 👍🏼👍🏼
I am having the same problem with my 1025R that has about 25 hours on it. Has anyone had any issues arise from this being poorly adjusted from the factory?
Hey Matt, Thanks for stopping by the channel. I don’t believe it does any damage to the tractor itself but it sure does like to churn up the dirt and ruin the lawn. Take Care 👍🏼
Hey Viking, I’m thinking it may have came that way and I just never noticed it when it was new. I use the tractor mainly for the snowblower in the winter and didn’t notice the posi locked then. I just started noticing the issue when I started moving dirt around on the lawn and it was digging the grass up and I couldn’t turn very well. I did some research online on one of the green tractor forums and there were quite a few people commenting theirs was doing the same thing from brand new and it was the brake that was adjusted a little to much. So I tried it and it worked.. Who would have known.It’s all good now. Thanks for stopping back.. Take Care.. 🤙🏼👍🏼
@@SometimeIsNow That’s good to know. I haven’t noticed that issue with mine but that doesn’t mean it’s adjusted properly. I will check it next time I have the opportunity when I have it jacked up and doing something else. My tractor has around 160 hours now and before this one I had it’s predecessor the 2305 for about 13 years. They are great tractors. I tilled my garden yesterday with mine. Keep up the good work with your informative videos. It’s always good to learn something new.
@@vikingwhitetails7457 Thanks for the great comments. It's much appreciated. I have 43 hrs on my 1025r. I have all the video footage shot for the single point connection install. Now I just have to edit. Hopefully by mid week I should be able to upload. I love how easy it is to remove the loader now.. YOu don't even have to shut the tractor off and purge the lines to unhook.. It was well worth the money.. I hated screwing with the 4 connections. One always seemed to fight me. TAke Care
Hey there! I followed your instructions and I can’t get those damn real reels to unlock. All I want to do is cut the grass without tearing it up. Any other ideas?
Hey Ken, Sorry I took so long responding I Just noticed your question. Did you figure your issue out yet? Have you tried backing off the adjustment even more to see if they unlock? Just remember that after you get the wheels to unlock you’ll need to readjust the brake in to make sure the emergency brake holds the wheels after the adjustment. Take Care 👍🏼
Hey Nuf, You can definitely feel something from the inside rear tire depending on which way you’re turning. When you turn you can feel the rear wheels skidding/jumping and see the tire digging up the grass
@@SometimeIsNow ok my tractor does it going straight and when it turns so I’ll loosen it up and adjust it and see if it stops. I hope it works because if that’s not what making that on mine it is going to be the gears or axles
Hey Grady.. Welcome back and thanks for stopping in. Who would have known it was something so simple and I never knew the brake was tide into the posi traction. Its good to know we weren't alone on this issue. Take Care 👍
That's my problem, now to make the proper adjustment! Thanks for making this video! I'm definitely subscribing!

Did your differential lock come adjusted that way from the factory or did it end up that way over time?
