Its midway on the high/low selector
So your dealing on it? Maybe just sell a few potatoes and go get it
got any pictures
Just a little more than a few potatoes Gary. But not to bad. Cheap entertainment. And surprisingly it runs and drove on the trailer. I didn’t think it was working so it’s a better deal.
It’s the one next door I’ve been eyeing up for the last number of years. People are selling the house. So we asked about it.

Okay you got it loaded and home? looks good enough I see one put a different muffler on it and modified the hood but with a bit of work you can make that kook good, did you get a mower deck, they do a good job mowing and I see a snowblower hope you don't get a chance to use it for 3/4 months
No problem asking question Noel, I've had both a 444 (14hp) and the one I sold this summer was a 446, they are well built tractors the decks are good and mow nice and the snowcaster (blower) work good also the attachment are pretty easy to install and remove. I quess my only complaint is to me they are slow form mowing the motion control is not at all like a hydrostatic it either very slow or slow. Looks like its a 1982 model year when you get it up and driving you can check out if it has the optional hold valve it keeps the tractor from free wheeling when going down a grade

Where would I find that valve at Gary. Found that out today. Likes to roll. And no brakes. So I gotta fix the brakes. We put it to work today. Hehe. 1/2 cord of hardwood on trailer. Will see tomorrow if it will move it. Hehe.

As for finding a holding valve you can watch e bay also you could join the FB case group there are 2 for sure some of the members sell parts its not a simple job to install but it does work, the 444 I had had it but the 446 I just sold did not per the owners manual when starting down a grade move the motion control lever to the slow position, the brake should be easy to repair may just need adjusting did you get any manuals with the tractor? There are lots of manuals online here's an operators manual https://manuals.casecoltingersoll.com/OperatorManuals/Case 446 Operator's Manual No. 9-6422.pdf
Seems to work good for something not running in the past few years. Touch the key and it starts. Revs up. Not sure if it’s charging yet. Have to test that. It moves, but we are not use to that yet. All our tractor are hydrostatics. Don’t like the rolling and hard to control speed a bit. Better thou in low range. I like the idea of 8 gpm hydrualic flow. I would like to hook it to a wood splitter that I used on the ferguson tractor. Just to see how it would work. Ferguson had the pressure, but not the flow. Only 2/3 gpm, I think.

Hi Noel, the holding valve is part of the speed control valve right under the center tunnel looks just like an ordinary hydraulic control valve, yes it takes a little getting use to operating the motion control lever, I thing it will operate a wood splitter, they have a very good hydraulic system and Case liked hyd and powered their tiller and a brush hog type cutter with hyd. Here's a link to a holding valve listed on e bay they are not cheap
