probable cause is oil or contaminant,s on the clutch disc & pressure plate..many tractor,s will not shift until you come to a complete stop..this is due to lack of synchronizer,s in the transmission…you will be able to shift once you learn to match engine R.P.M. to tractor speed…this practice take,s a while to master…as far as the smoke..you should have the rear main engine seal & transmission input seal checked as well as the clutch it self…good luck. …a 310D is a fine dependable unit…if the price is right…go for it.

well the seal on the shift is broken and the oil might need to be changed if it has a buring smell trans. oil
