149 hydro takes off by itself
 
I recently bought a 149 and it came with a tiller, one bottom plow, plow blade, mower and a bunch of parts. Tractor runs god but hydro wants to take off unless i hold the lever to keep it from taking off. Im sure i can figure it from the service manual. The first thing i will check is the tension/friction adustment, but was wondering if someone would know off hand what the problem is that would save me some time. Once again, thanks for the help

That's probably what the issue is then.
Refer to the FSM for how to do it.

I found it in service manual and tightened it and it fixed it. Thanks

That's called "hydro creep" and as you already found out, a little adjustment usually fixes it.
