I have looked around for answer to this problem but can’t figure it out. Whenever I remove foot from pedal it will continue to creep in that direction. I just removed the damper so pedal would move freely and it does same thing, will try to attach video. Can’t see much underneath that controls the centering of pedal, all linkage moves freely. I guess I can’t attach video. Thank you.

You need a certain minimum amount of posts before being able to add pictures.

Can’t attach video. Need to use YouTube and post the link.

You can post pictures after 5 (?) posts.

A few years ago (4-5?) at least a couple OTT members had similar issues with B2650’s. I recall one documented it and the fix well.

Don’t recall if it was an issue with the damper on the linkage, but it wasn’t a major ordeal if my memory serves.

If you use the Search function on OTT for creep, you might find some posts specific to B2650.

PS - - found a couple of them:

Thank you, I will take a look at those threads. Posting stuff to other sites and linking them is a little over my head, I don’t use any of them.

Same here…. I don’t do much YouTube, and sure as shYt don’t know how to do that either.😳

I misread your model number and posted B2650 links. My bad and my apologies. Definitely time to change my bifocals….

Just guessing it could still be something similar to your B2620.

Sorry about the distraction.

You may want to check on a reply that North Idaho Wolfman posted back in 2016. He lists the parts that are involved in centering the pedal.

I will try to find that, I took a closer look at it when I put damper back in, linkage all moves free, can’t see any springs, maybe issue inside transmission, hope not

There is an external spring, if your missing it no wonder it's not staying in neutral.
The WSM will explain how to adjust it.
If it does it randomly forward and reverse the bearing is out.

I just don’t see any external springs connected to the pedal rocker, like I said earlier when I removed the damper to free up the linkage, the linkage just kinda floats in neutral position. Just took a picture, springs for brake but nothing on shift pedal.

The spring and linkage that Wolfman highlighted in the picture are inside the frame. You can not see them without laying under the tractor and looking up through the opening.

Try tightening nuts number 120 in the diagram that Wolfman posted. It puts tension on spring number 100 which helps with the pedal tension and return to neutral position. I have had to adjust that on my B 2920

will take a look when I go out to garage, hopefully access to it from underneath.

Yes, the bolt with the nuts sticks straight down about in the middle of the tractor under the operator platform. Crawl under and you should see it. It is double nutted, so you will need 2 wrenches.

This may be an issue, looks like that adjuster is missing, now to figure out parts needed and how assembled
