M60 tank

[fitch580]

I own a 2006 cub cadet commercial M60 tank .When I got it out for the first time this year I noticed that the paddles are stiff and very hard to push. I gave it a good cleaning but that didn't help anybody got any ideas

O.K. the sticks

Thinking must mean the drive levers.

Right where the sticks paddles go down into frame under the seat there is a spring most have grease fittings there or just spray some good ole wd40 in there and work them they should loosen up.

What about the dampers? Can they get tight? I've only had mine go soft, but suppose it's possible.

Guess they could but I haven't seen them do that.

I found 2 hidden grease fittings on the shaft that the drive levers hook too so I gave them some grease and that seems to have fixed the problem.Thanks for all of your replys and comments
