PowrReverser™ Transmission, Reverse Drive Lever

A - Range-Shift Lever

B - Gear-Shift Lever

C - Reverse Drive Lever

The transmission is shifted via range shift lever (A) and gear shift lever (B). The PowrReverser™ transmission is additionally shifted with the mechanical reverse drive lever (C).

IMPORTANT: Engage park lock only when the tractor is stationary.

NOTE: After the engine has been started, wait for 5 seconds before moving gear-shift lever (B) or reverse drive lever (C) out of neutral position.

Optimum gear-shifting for driving under load (transport):

  1. Select a range suitable for driving under load.
  2. Engage the first gear.
  3. Drive and shift up through the ranges until the top range is reached.
  4. Shift up through the gears.

Cold-weather operation

If the oil is cold (0°C, 32°F), it may affect how the reverse drive lever operates. At temperatures below -10°C (14°F), it may take longer to change the direction of travel. Below +5°C (41°F), the automatic softshift is de-activated.

In certain circumstances, the reverse drive lever may have to be actuated several times before the tractor starts to move. When the oil has had time to warm up, operation becomes normal again.


Come-home mode

Under certain circumstances, the tractor can still be driven in Come-home mode even if there is an electrical fault in the transmission.

To do this, stop the engine, remove connector K10/2 (relay box K10) and re-install it at a position 90° from its original position. The wording Come Home must be at the top.

NOTE: In the come-home mode, engine speed is limited to 1500 rpm and only the first gear in each range is available.


Cruise control (if equipped)

Maximum engine speed can be limited for PTO operation using potentiometer (A). Move the hand throttle lever to full throttle, then reduce engine speed using potentiometer (A).

In the lowest setting, engine speed is limited to 1050 rpm. In the highest setting, the engine can run at maximum speed. Individual engine speed limits can be set between these two positions.

If no PTO operation is taking place, potentiometer (A) should be in its maximum speed (“Off” position).
