TRANSMISSION AND
DUAL
POWER
Two
types of
transmission
are
available:
1.
Constant
mesh
transmission
with
eight
for-
ward
and
two reverse ratios (8
.x
2).
2.
Synchronised
shuttle shift transmission with
eight
forward
and
reverse
ratios
(8
x
8).
A WARNING:
To
prevent inadvertent
...

the
gearshift
levers.
Always
stop
the
en-
gine, firmly apply
the
parking
brake
and
place
all
transmission
levers
in
neutral
before
leaving
the
tractor.
8 x 2 Constant Mesh Transmission
The
gearshift levers protrude
from
the center
of
the
transmission, beneath the steering wheel.
The
left-hand
lever
(main) is used to select any
one
of
four forward
or
one
reverse
gear
ratio.
The
right-hand
lever (range) is used to select
the
high
(H)
or
low
(L) range
which
has the effect
of
dou-
bling
the
number
of
available gear ratios.

of
the

levers. See Figure 8 for the gear-
shift positions.
Synchronised Shuttle Shift Transmission
The
fully synchronised
shuule
shift transmission
is
of
an advanced
design
having
eight
forward and
reverse gear ratios
(8
x 8 transmission).
This
trans-
mission also benefits from the optional Dual
Power
f caturc which doubles the
number
of
for-
ward
gear ratios (16 x 8 transmission).
Synchronised shuttle shift transmission is
oper-
ated by means
of
the clutch pedal, the
main
gear
shift lever, the range
lever
and the shuttle shift
lever
(sec
Figure
9).
The
main
gear
shift lever, the
range lever and the shuttle shift
lever
are
identi-
fied
by
orange coloured knobs.
The
main
gear
shift
lever
is used to select any
one
of
four
gear
ratios.
The
range lever is used to select
the high
or
low rnngc, which
has
the effect
of
dou-
bling the number
gear
ratios to eight, both
in
for-
ward and reverse.
The
shift pattern is clearly
marked
on
a decal affixed to the right-hand fender
and is also shown in Figure 9.
