Hey guys. New to tractors, recently purchased a 2650. Having an issue with the treadle. It doesn’t return to neutral whatsoever, to the point where I almost have to stomp it back to reverse to stop. It’s a real pain when loading thing in my truck as I am bound to smash into the back of my truck at some point lol. Wondering if anyone has had this problem and how it can be resolved
B2650 Hst Pedal not returning

A few years back, there was (maybe still is) an inherent problem to your question. Hard to find the neutral spot on the pedal. Often a shot of grease into the zerk for that point of the pedal. Go under the machine and look close.
If you have the problem when atempting to start the engine, there is a test where rocking the pedal near mid-point of forward / reverse to see if the pedal (neutral safety position) hits the neutral spot. Did I mention a shot of grease? Best on the fix.

Clean and lube the treadle's linkages and springs/dampers that are under the floor deck. You'll find out while working around under there if there's anything obstructing it or if something is loose or malfunctioning. I spray a coating Fluid Film on the assembly when it's general maintenance/lube time.
I've also had twigs/spruce needles find there way in there.
Operating the pedal fully in both directions, tractor safely parked, braked, engine off of course, while looking at it underneath. Likely the switch/damper assembly is gunged up.
The Fluid film seems to be a good lube for it. No probs really in even bitter cold temps.
Clean, test operation underneath, lube.
The Damper is item 110, make sure its not bent or messed up as nbryan mentioned
