high-low range handle

[BOTANH]

New to me L2350DT with manual 8 speed trans. I understand the high-low and how you achieve the 8 speeds (2 reverse) but what is the "neutral" position on that handle for????? Just haven't experimented yet.

Because you could not get the gears to mesh with the other gear when shifting if there was not a space between them.

In addition ...

I'm not sure about your model of Kubota but most tractors with a similar transmission won't start unless the high-low shifter is in neutral.

No not the range shifter, just the regular shifter, but this model only has a clutch pedal switch.

I have a L2350 in the shop right now with a bad range gear neutral switch, so they weren't "all" without them. IIRC, just a few of the "later" L2350's which is what I am working on.

Snap a picture of the switch and location would you, I've got no information on that.

And it won't start if that range lever is not in neutral?
