7016 6 speed

I have a problem with shifting the 3 speed transmission.

It grinds the gears

The clutch is fully releasing belt.

The brake fully enges when clutch/brake is depressed.

I polished up the pullies

no rust, or nicks on pullies

thinking there must be a way of stopping puuley on transaxle when shifting.

On page 23 of the operators book I sent you shows the gap between the gap between the pulley and retainer. That's your belt stop.

Ron. Another thought. They are not meant to be shifted if tractor is in motion; unlike a car or truck trans.

While the clutch releases all tension on belt

and the brake is engaged

there is enough drag  that I can not start tractor in gear

And when it does start, I can not shift without grinding.

This was a 3 speed tractor, and I recently added six speed pullies.

Problem is worse now, but had it when it was 3 speed

Belt stop on rear pulley is the answer I think

Sounds to me like there is a belt out of adjustment.  Have you checked to see if everything stops rotating when you depress the clutch/brake?

That is the problem

the bgb pulley continues to rotate

even if the belt is very loose

The transaxle contuse to rotate.

If I stop tractor with clutch/brake

and in gear. Everything stops moving

because brake stops transaxle.

but if it is not in gear, belt does drive pully

need a belt stop for transaxle pully

If you cannot start the tractor in gear with the clutch depressed sounds like the belt(s) are too tight, and would not stop when you depress the clutch.   This could be belts that are too short or your belt tightener/clutch pulley is out of adjustment and does not travel far enough to release all the tension on the belt(s). 

Does this happen in both hi and low range?

I just have belt on low speed pulleys

belt is very loose during clutching

new installation, had to make major adjustments.

otherwise belt would not engage.

seems to be getting better.

There is a brake pad on the pulley , when u push the brake/clutch , it locks the tranny pulley so u can shift ,if u need photos I can share few , they might've deleted that brake pad on ur tractor for that ur having this issue , not to mention there isa trick when shifting these 6speed, mentioned in the manuals , when shifting and it doesn't go in gear u have to lift ur foot off clutch a bit to have the pulley barely turn so u can  shift  (if every thing on tractor correct )

please send pictures, I think I may have fixed problem. Looking at 3 speed set up parts , I realized that Idler pulley had a belt stop on it. Put it on, positioned stop ,so it only works when clutch is depressed. But a stop on driven pully was what I wanted.
