PARK - Rear slot (A)-Park brake applied when lever is fully forward in slot.

NEUTRAL - Right slot (B)-Park brake is released when lever is moved to the right slot.

Reverse - Center slot (C)- Tractor will begin moving rearward when lever enters this slot. Push lever forward for downshifts and pull rearward for upshifts.

Forward - Front slot (D)-Tractor will begin moving forward when lever enters this slot. Push lever forward for upshifts and pull rearward for downshifts.

NOTE: Use a higher gear and lower engine speed for light load operations to save fuel and reduce wear. Under full load conditions, use full throttle engine speed.

Transmission will start out in 7F and 2R after engine is started. These are the default gears. ¹

Once in forward or reverse, the commanded gear changes to the last gear of operation before shifting to NEUTRAL.

The initial commanded gear can also be changed prior to initiating motion to match the operation.

FORWARD gears (1 through 13) and REVERSE gears (1 through 3) may be preselected by depressing clutch pedal and pushing or pulling shift lever until the desired gear is displayed.

Transmission will not shift into 15F and 16F speeds until normal operating temperature has been reached. Delayed shifting may also be noticeable.

The highest forward gear the transmission will automatically shift to is 11F, when shifting from reverse. For example, if transmission is in 13F and is shifted to reverse, and then back to forward, transmission will automatically shift to 11F.

However, if transmission is in 13F or higher and tractor is stopped by using the clutch or shifting to NEUTRAL and not shifted through reverse, transmission will be in 13F when shifted forward again.

Hold lever to shift up or down to selected gear. Transmission will shift one gear at a time until lever is released.

"Bump" lever to quickly shift up or down to selected gear. Transmission will skip gears, if lever is moved faster than transmission can shift.

Hold lever to shift up or down until desired gear is displayed. Transmission will go into commanded gear when clutch pedal is released.

"Bump" lever to quickly shift up or down until desired gear is displayed. Transmission will go into commanded gear when clutch pedal is released.

To reach transport speed quickly, depress clutch pedal and rapidly "bump" shift lever to 13F. Transmission will shift directly to 13F when clutch is released. Once tractor is underway in 13F, "bump" shift lever to 16F.

Moving shift lever between FORWARD and REVERSE slots causes transmission to modulate directly to opposite direction of travel without clutching or braking.

Shuttle shift occurs between last commanded forward and reverse gears.

Commanded gear will be 2R, regardless of previous reverse gear, when shifting from 14F-16F to reverse.

CAUTION: Avoid possible accident and injury from loss of vehicle control. Never coast down hill.

Transmission will match ground speed as clutch is released after tractor slows when clutch pedal is depressed at speeds greater than 13F or 3R.

Transmission will not match ground speeds as clutch is released after tractor slows when clutch pedal is depressed at speeds below 13F or 3R. Transmission will remain in 13F or 3R even if tractor comes to complete stop.

Transmission will not up shift to match ground speed as clutch is released, if tractor speeds up while clutch pedal is depressed.

Starting out in 13F with a heavy load may cause the clutch to slip excessively. A flashing transmission symbol and a Service Alert warning light will display. Downshift to a lower gear.

Transmission will automatically shift from 13F to 11F if not downshifted and too much heat is detected.
