ROAD SPEEDS (continued)
ROAD SPEED DECAL
A decal similar to one
of
those
shown
above
is af-
fixed
to
the right-hand
fender.
The
decals illus-
trate the P.T.O./engine speeds
and
the
road
speed
in
all ratios at three alternative engine speeds.
The particular example on
the
left-hand
side
is for
a tractor
with
constant mesh transmission
(8
for-
ward and 2 reverse ratios)
having
a rated speed
of
2200 rev/min. and fitted
with
13.6
-
28
rear
tires. To
find
the road speed

example,
1800
rev/min. in

block down to the
MPH
line or up
to
the
km/h line. In the example
shown,
the
road
speed
indicated is 12.2 MPH or
19.6
km/h.
REDUCTION GEAR SET (creeper gears)
The
reduction
gear set
offers
additional
transmis-
sion ratios
with
very low ground
speeds.
Constant
mesh transmission offers reduction gear sets with
a
reduction
ratio of
5.
7 or
10:
1.
The
road
speeds for constant
mesh
transmission
are printed in the tables on

for

The decal on the right-hand side is for a ttactor
with Synchronized Shuttle Shift transmission
and
Dual Power (16 forward and 8 reverse ratios) hav·
ing a
rated
speed of
2200
rev/min. and fitted
with 16.9 -
30
rear tires. The
bare
and tortoise
symbols on the decal represent direct
drive
and
Dual Power, respectively.
To find the road speed

follow
the
right-hand edge

MPH
line or up
to
the
kmJh
lines.
In
the example shown. the road
speed
indicated is 12.0

and
inserted the calculated figures into the
appro-
priate table.
To obtain the ground speeds
with creeper gears,
divide the speeds
in
the first 4 forward gears and
low reverse, by
5.7or10, according to
the
type
of
reduction gear set installed.
