Shifting Top Shaft Synchronizer (TSS) Transmission (If equipped)

IMPORTANT: To prevent unnecessary clutch wear, never rest a foot on clutch pedal while operating tractor.

IMPORTANT: The clutch pedal must be fully depressed in order to make a speed shift. If the clutch pedal is not fully depressed, the shift lever can not be moved beyond neutral in the H-pattern. Should this occur, depress the clutch pedal further. If the clutch pedal free travel is out of specification, readjust the clutch pedal linkage. (See Service-250 Hours Section for Adjustment Procedure.)

The TSS transmission allows any forward gear or reverse to be shifted while in motion. However, the clutch must be disengaged and then engaged by means of clutch pedal (A). Make sure to depress clutch pedal fully and release it gradually to take up load smoothly.

NOTE: For tractors with two wheel drive the transmission allows only second gear and reverse to be shifted while in motion.

IMPORTANT: Top shaft synchronizer works only on speed gears, including reverse. To shift into a different range, tractor must first be brought to a complete stop, and the engine speed brought down. After the tractor is stopped, the clutch must be depressed fully to make the range shift. Depressing the clutch fully and reducing engine speed while shifting ranges will prevent damage to the transmission. Once the shift has been made, then increase engine speed.
