Number of gears on tractors with:
SYNCROPLUS
™
transmission (30 km/h; 18.5 mph): 12 forward gears, 4 reverse gears
SYNCROPLUS transmission with Power Reverser (30 km/h; 18.5 mph): 16 forward gears, 16 reverse gears
POWRQUAD
™
transmission (30 km/h; 18.5 mph): 16 forward gears, 16 reverse gears
POWRQUAD PLUS transmission (30 km/h; 18.5 mph): 16 forward gears, 16 reverse gears
POWRQUAD PLUS transmission (40 km/h; 25 mph): 24 forward gears, 24 reverse gears
AUTOQUAD II transmission (40 km/h; 25 mph): 24 forward gears, 24 reverse gears
The tractor can be equipped with an additional creeper transmission that provides a further 9 forward gears (SYNCROPLUS transmission) or 12 forward gears (POWRQUAD transmission).
Gears should be selected so as to avoid permanent overloading of the engine. Ground travel speeds with engine running at rated speed are shown on the following pages.
Should you wish to determine ground speed travel at other engine speeds, then proceed as follows:
Desired engine speed
2300 rpm |
= Conversion factor
|
|
The conversion factor multiplied by the ground speed shown in the table opposite gives the ground travel speed at the desired engine speed.
Example:
Ground travel speed at 2300 rpm according to table opposite: 8.5 km/h; desired speed: 1400 rpm
8.5 km/h x 0.61 = 5.2 km/h
Should you wish to determine engine speed at a desired ground travel speed, proceed as follows:
Desired ground travel speed
Desired ground travel speed in table opposite |
= Conversion factor
|
The conversion factor multiplied by the rated speed gives you the desired engine rpm.
Example:
2300 rpm x 0.59 = 1360 rpm
