Shifting the Power Shift Transmission

The Power Shift transmission is electronically controlled and provides modulated gear shifts in all forward and reverse gears.

Push gear lever (A) forward to drive forward, and pull the lever to the rear to drive in reverse. The Power Shift transmission can change from forward to reverse and back again without the need to operate the clutch. Use stops (B) to restrict the range of gears available (e.g. when shuttle-shifting with a loader).

There is a problem in transmission system if transmission indicator comes on and/or transmission shifts to neutral. Problems may be caused by:

Riding the clutch pedal

Holding shift lever between neutral and first gear

Attempting to start engine with lever in gear

Operating tractor in temperatures below -10°C (14°F).

Reset transmission by fully engaging clutch pedal and/or moving shift lever to neutral.

Cold-Weather Operation

Cold oil, 0°C (32°F), can affect shifting quality. Below -10°C (14°F), shifting may be delayed along with slow hydraulics and hard steering.

IMPORTANT: Some gears are blocked for transmission protection at temperatures below -10°C (14°F).

Operator will not have even-numbered shifts for three to four minutes after start-up and transmission gear indicator will flash when temperatures are below -10°C (14°F). Normal operation will return when oil is warmed above this temperature.

Shifting Characteristics

Shifting does not begin until shift lever movement stops. Use shift stops for loader-type shuttle shifting.

Shifting to desired gear from unwanted gear (while shifting) can be completed by shifting to desired gear within 1.5 seconds; if shift lever stops or pauses longer than 1.5 seconds in a gear different than desired gear, transmission will shift to that gear first, then shift sequentially to last selected gear.

Tractor coasts in original direction until shift lever reaches selected gear during shuttle shift.

Shifting-Without Using Clutch Pedal

Gear-to-gear - Transmission will sequentially shift up or down to selected gear.

Neutral-to-gear 1 - Transmission will modulate directly to gear selected up to 11F or 6R, then sequentially shift to higher gear.

Neutral-to-gear 2 - Transmission will shift to a gear matching ground speed then to selected gear to maintain smooth shifting.

Shuttle shifting (direction change) 2 - Transmission will modulate directly to gear selected up to 11F or 6R, then sequentially shift to higher gear.

Shifting-Using Clutch Pedal

IMPORTANT: Clutch pedal must be fully depressed to completely disengage clutch for transmission to operate correctly.

Shifting (speed less than 1 km/h (1 mph) - Shift is non-modulated directly to gear selected.

1 Tractor stopped or moving less than 0.8 km/h (0.5 mph)

2 Tractor moving more than 0.8 km/h (0.5 mph)

NOTE: Gear-to gear shifting listed below is for tractor speeds more than 1 km/h (1 mph).

Gear-to-gear (up-shifting) - Transmission will automatically modulate to gear. If pedal engagement is over four seconds, modulation can be controlled with clutch pedal.

Gear-to-gear (down-shifting) - Transmission will shift to gear matching ground speed and then shift sequentially to gear selected as clutch pedal is re-engaged.
