5055E JD won't go into reverse or 1st gear when cold

Posted by randallinMo on January 14, 2013 at 07:18:09 from (216.74.205.155):

I have a (new to me) JD 5055 E (450 total hours) that WILL NOT go into reverse or 1st gear when it gets below freezing. The gear shift is extremely hard to free up from the "park" position and reverse grinds badly when trying to engage into that gear. The dealer I bought it from doesn't know what's wrong...says "probably gummed up". But with this low of total hours on the tractor I'm thinking there's something wrong internally. Does anyone have an opinion on how to fix this?
