I picked the Buck 650 up on Friday and finally put it to work for a bit this afternoon. Mounted the 15 gal. sprayer on the back and sprayed for this fall’s plots and hit a couple of fencerows to finish off the tank. Overall, I am happy with the machine, but I have a few questions-
1. When starting I sometimes have to rock the machine a bit, then the starter engages and it starts fine. All elec. connections seem tight and there is no corrosion…what do I look for next?
2. Still having issues with the shifter. I turned the idle down a bit and it helped but when I stopped going downhill today I had a struggle getting it into reverse. I do think that part of it is that the machine is new to me and I just don’t have the hang of it yet. I tried doing a search on the shifter issues and didn’t have any luck, but then I am not much good when it comes to using computers. Is there a site that I can download both the operators and service manuals? Does anyone have any other suggestions?
I am sure all of these issues have been addressed here before and I am sorry to be a PITA. Thanks for your help thus far and thanks in advance for the help in the future! Mike
