It's very hard to move my hydrostatic control lever to either forward or reverse on my Simplicity LTH. Any suggestions? Also, anybody know where to download a free repair manual for this model?

Model 303777, Type 0122-01, 5526
or Model 1691897

tractor beam

I'd say that the tensioner on the pivot point of the stick is too tight or needs lubrication. No idea on a down load but have you looked on Ebay or Amazon for a copy?

best bet is to actually get down under the tractor and get a birds eye view of the problem- could be a stick lodged up there to something bent.
