Been having some trouble with my L3560 tractor. A few months ago, my 3-point hitch just stopped working. I took it to the dealer and they fixed it, but then the problem came back a few weeks later. Apparently, there was some rust and corrosion on the transaxle housing that was causing the linkage to get stuck. The dealer cleaned it up and lubed it, and now it's working again.

Has anyone else had similar issues with their L series tractors? Any tips or advice would be appreciated!
 
Equipment and tractors left outside out in the elements will eventually run into these kinds of problems so you have to either have a shed for it or expect this to happen.
 
I've heard that the L3430 can have issues with the 4WD linkage. It's a common problem, according to my dealer. To prevent it from happening, make sure to clean and lubricate the linkage regularly.

My tractor is also stored indoors, so it's not weather-related. It's just something that needs to be maintained.
