SECTION 2 - OPERATION

Automatic Range Select

Depressing the clutch pedal while the tractor is moving causes a neutral condition, allowing the electronic control to automatically select a transmission range matching tractor ground and engine speeds when the clutch pedal is released. For example, if the tractor is in ninth gear forward and the operator depresses the clutch pedal, tractor ground speed will be reduced but engine RPM will remain the same. The transmission controller will sense the reduction in ground speed and automatically shift the transmission down to a gear that will match the ground speed when the clutch pedal is released.

If the clutch pedal is held down and the tractor comes to a rolling stop, the transmission controller will shift the tractor to first gear. The transmission will not shift to neutral unless the control lever is put in the neutral position.

Forward/Reverse Shifting

The automatic modulation feature of the transmission allows the transmission to be shuttled from a pre--selected forward gear (1st through 7th gear) to R1 using the control lever. Shuttling the control lever back to forward will return the tractor to the pre--selected gear up to 7th gear.

It is not necessary to come to a complete stop for this shuttle shifting operation.
