Case 2090 - seems like the foot clutch is not completely

I have time now to work on the Case 2090 powershift. I have posted about this before and just want to refresh my memory since it has been a few months, plus I probably understand what is going on a little better now as far as symptoms. When using the tractor and you push the clutch in you can't pull it out of gear. Also, if you start it and push the clutch in it grinds when you try to put it in gear. The clutch pedal adjusting stop isn't really doing much as the clutch pedal arm hits the floor mat in the cab at the same time. When you push in the clutch pedal there is no Case power shift NOISE (GRUNT). Lastly, if driving forward and you push the clutch in the powershift lever will not entirely move back to the powershift #1 slot. You manually have to pull it back by hand to the #1 spot. When you hit the starter key and pull it into gear at the same time and drive the tractor the transmission does not slip.

Here is how the power shift lever works with the engine off:

Clutch pedal out - full range of shifting of lever on the power shift including forward #1,2,3 and Reverse

Clutch pedal in - lever will only move to forward #1 and Reverse

Here is how the power shift lever works with the engine on:

Clutch pedal out - will move into forward #1,2,3 but will not move into Reverse

Clutch pedal in - can only move to forward #1. Will not move to #2 or 3 and not in to reverse either.

I do have plenty of threads on the clutch cable under the cab to adjust it. What are some other things I should be looking for? Pulling the spools to make sure they are not stuck??

Thank you.

It sure sounds like your cable needs to be adjusted, you need the grunt when the pedal is depressed or it will function just as you described yours is. Adjust the cable so the pedal does not contact floor when it is depressed by hand. We have enough strength it our legs to force the pedal to the floor that is why I mention using arm strength to check this. When you get that set see if it grunts, if it does chances are all will operate properly. Then adjust the stop bolt for the pedal to stop pedal travel at the point where arm strength can push it. Having about a half inch between pedal and floor is about right with pedal fully depressed. Rod.
