My 300U grinds and wont go into gear if the clutch has been released while running in Neutral. My uncle has a 300 w/ a backhoe and says his does the same thing. He says his goes in easier after it is good and warmed up. I've discovered on mine however, if i idle the tractor all the way down, and push the hydraulic lever all the way forward it will drop right into gear. ( the lever I'm referring to switches hydraulics to run loader when all the way back, 3 point when positioned in the middle, and currently nothing when all the way forward) I dont know if this helps, I am new to owning old tractors, but enjoying every minute.

Probably, but need more info. With tractor rolling in gear does it slow down or stop if you pull T/A lever back while putting pressure on brakes? Is tractor hard to get shift lever pulled out of gear sometimes? Sometimes someone adjusts linkage from T/A handle so much that the pressure plate levers are pushed far enough to hit. Does it grind as soon as lever starts back or when near all the way back.

When you pull the lever back it moves the T/A clutch release bearing to fingers of pressure plate and this releases the T/A clutch which lets tractor slow or gear down if the T/A unit is good. If T/A unit is bad tractor will stop. When forward clutch is engaged and unit is in dirrect drive or high side. Without looking at tractor this info is about all I can help with. Besides T/A clutch parts its posable there could be a problem with the planet gears or shafts in T/A unit since they only spin in low T/A, but I think the greatest chance is the T/A clutch and parts. If you narrow problem down the T/A clutch can be looked at by removing top plate on clutch housing, not a fun thing to do on a utility.
