Multiple problems
1. This tractor keeps getting stuck in gear, I pop out the shifter and put it back with a flat screw driver, how do I permanetly fix.
2. What type of oil goes in the gear box/rear end? I think there is 3 different fill holes on this tractor.
3. When the tractor is under a load I have to hold the hand clutch back with a good amount of force, in order to move. How do I adjust?
 
take your shifter out and completely rebuild it,like i did,ibelieve to use 80w-90 oil in the gears.your hand clutch has shims in it , they are located in the the clutch under the battery box,if the shims are all gone,you have to hold or chain the hand clutch back.good luck.
 
Is relining the clutch or replacing the shims a job where I will have to split the tractor? How dose one rebuild the shifter, take it to someone or is it a DIY job.
 
Your problem discriptions to me sound as if the tractor has had a hard life an now needs some TLC,namely a complete rebuild of the Transmission back to the Final Drive which if knowledgeable of these repairs to me is a interesting Mechanical effort. Costly,depends on how much you value the tractor.80-90 Gear lube is used in the drives on this Tractor. I would look at Lucas Products.
 
Just pull the shift tower off to access the shift linkage, and take the battery box off to get to the hand clutch. WD has a twin disk clutch, WD45 has a triple disk. They both come out the tube pretty easy. You need an IT manual.
 
On the sticking in gear, My WD -45 did this and in time i did these things to my tractor and it helped.
- The key slot on the shifter lever was worn, i built it up and made it fit key correct.
- I put a new key in the housing just under the snap ring, it has a pin from the side you punch out and put a new one in, it will fit the shifter's slot.
- I am not sure if this helps but i dump in a quart of luscs oil additive every now and then.
If i can better describe this, please ask because it helped my tractor from sticking in a gear. Basicly the play in the lever and key gave it play to pop out.
