I have no manuals on this new (used) rig of mine.I can shift between gears fine and sure, 4th gear does go faster than 1st - but I think that I could walk faster than this thing in any gear. I've placed the throttle closer to rabbit and it just seems to rev faster - I go only slightly faster. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. On a potentially related question - is their a brake release? The results seem very much like I am in a car with the emergency brake on.Thanks for your help!Chris

Are you sure you only have 4 gears. You probably have an 8 speed. There should be a high/Low lever somewhere on your tractor. I have a L2500 and the lever is on the left side. My Kubota's fist 4 gears are all very low. Every tractor I have ever used had High and Low gears. Hope this helps. ....

I have a L 2550 same as the L2850 little less H.P.I have no problem with high speeds on my tractor. In fact the tractor is a little scary to drive at high speeds on pavement because it gets a little top heavy with the loader.Like everyone else said with the high range it should really move right-along.I hope you get your problem resolved.Like Frank said they are a wonderful tractor I have owned my L2550 for a short time (3 months)and it is just a great machine.I spread 110 yards of fill and 4 hours with the greatest of easy.good luck with your tractor. ....
