My 39 H does the same thing.. if you force it into reverse to hard.. the shifter gets worn on the end and lets it go past the notch in the shift forks.. You have to remove the pin that hold the shift lever in the top transmisson housing.. or deck plate if you will.. There are two metal keepers below the bell of the shifter.. Drill a small hole in one side right in the center so that you can use a drift punch to knock out the pin and the other keeper on the opposite side. The pin is only a 1/4 inch in dia. or so. so the punch and hole need to be small.. I could not figure any other way to knock out those metal keepers. or plugs. Once you do this the hole shiter will come out of the top. Now use a large screw driver or pry bar to move the shift forks back in line to put the transmisson in neutral. and you can drop your shifter back on and replace the pin and plugs to hold the pin and you should be back in business.. Next time it happens the hole is already in the keeper plug and all you will need is you punch and hammer. and something to reach down inside and move the shift forks.. Hope this helps.
The first time it did it to me I was in a panic too, thought we were in for a major repair.. Now it is just like the stater hanging up.. just loosen the bolts tap on the starter, roll her forward a little in gear and your off again.. Would not give that tractor away for any money..

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
