The corresponding symbol is displayed on the instrument
panel right-hand screen, as shown in the following table:
When the tractor is operating, the direction is always
changed with the left-hand lever (Fig. 8). To start the tractor
moving (forward or reverse travel), the correct transmis-
sion ratio must be selected.
4.5.2.2 - Fast Shifting
When changing the direction of travel, the tractor decreas-
es to a halt, then accelerates in the opposite direction.
Shifting is inhibited but not blocked when the following
functions are active:
• the underspeed supervisor
• the turbo clutch function
During tractor movement, if the clutch pedal is activated,
the transmission ratio is decreased until speed is zero.
The armrest lever (1 Fig. 9) also controls speed increases
