It is very sensitive to oil temp changes and if the oil is not brought to temp can cause tight overlaps that will cause the trans momentatily lock up stopping the tractor wheels sliding when the trans is backshifted by clutch pedal depresssion. I'm like the rest now, experience and your senses are your best tool. mEl [Reply]   [No Email]

Both were Reps when I got into this bussiness. Both hated the damn Bliney Box as they called it. They would adjust a tractor and two hrs later if the unit ether warmed up more or cooled down they found out it was out of adjustment again! Thats when they told us how to adjust without it, although they still had to demo the Box as CASE had told them. Ahhhh.... the good ole days, LOL, Rod. [Reply]  [No Email]

When the first 2470's were gear jumpers, he tore one down for us while I just assisted to show how to repair the problem. The job sucked and he was not afraid to get dirty, always admired him for that. Rod. [Reply]  [No Email]

Couple years ago I put a new cable on 1st and 2nd gear. Moves so easy it about falls out of 2nd and will come out under load after about 45 minutes use. Acts more like the spring on the detent is very weak, but would like to know if more serious. This on a very early 2470. [Reply]  [No Email]

What we did then to correct it was replace both driver and driven gears, add shims to lessen gear endplay. We had only a few that had this problem occured on, for the most part the later white 24's never bothered. When the 90's came out CASE added hyd pressure to the detents and changed the teeth on the hub that the shift collar engages to hold it from slipping out. The older ones have the same shift fork detent set-up as the 1370,s where it is easy to install new springs, I think on the 24,s that shiftfork cover is covered up by the main side frame which would make that job almost impossible without tranny removal. If yours only comes out of gear after that long of time I would not be too concerned. However it is not good to let them do that, it seem like if they are left to continue doing so they create a wear pattern and the jumping out slowly gets worse. Maybe a light spring could be added to keep the weight of the lever from trying shift it out or every so often just moving the lever to make sure it is still fully engaged. Hope this helps, Rod.

Most all tillage is done in 3-2. Never had the problem with the old shift cable as it moved quite hard. [Reply]  [No Email]
