| My tiller b-10 tractor grinds gears so bad, I have to hit the switch to almost kill it, jab it in gear then turn it back on to shift it.The belt looks right, the split pully works. Everything looks like the B-10 loader tractor, which shifts good.What do you think? |

I would warn against "jamming" into gear. It think that is probably the major contributing factor in the shifting peg popping out of the shifting forks. I am thinking there is one or more of the following things going on.
1) wrong belt, wrong length, wrong profile, is the belt wrapped or bare?
2) belt guard at BGB too "tight" prevent belt from being released
3) belt guard at BGB too "loose" failing to catch belt |

| Are you sure your BGB is not grinding? |

| Hint,, put it in neutral,, adjust everything untill the belt will completely stop when the pedal is depressed. This includes brake, clutch rod, and belt guards. If the belt is moving, It will grind. |

like Denny and Phil are getting at... there are two things going on when you push the clutch/brake pedal
1) loosening of the tension pulley when depressing the clutch/brake pedal
2) tightening of the brake band on the brake "drum" to stop the transmission from spinning.
On my 310 my brake band is worn and out of adjustment so even though the belt is slack... the transmission
continues to spin for 10 - 15 seconds.... If I wait for it to stop spinning then I don't get any grinding.
like the guys said... I too would check the adjustments and the brake band |

| Denny and Chris, you are right. A maladjusted brake band can be the root of all your issues. I forgot first start off with the brake band and make sure it is not too tight. If too tight it can prevent the clutch from traveling all the way. I had a tractor that where they apparently couldn't stop the tractor and they tightened the brake so much then actually bent the pedal and broke the shaft tube away from the frame standing on the brake trying to get it to stop. Backed the brake off and the clutch started releasing and the tractor would stop when you pressed the brake. |

| I have not had a chance to try any ideas yet due to mowing, which is the idea of putting a mower deck on one of my allis tractors. I want to see first hand the nice mowing job they are supposed to do. |

B-10 gears grinding
