Transmission
Here’s an advantage you’ll appreciate: a choice of transmissions. If your work tends to keep you in a single gear, go with the economical 9x3 Gear Transmission. If versatility is what you’re after, the convenient gear-free Hydrostatic Transmission will impress you with infinitely variable speeds.
OPTION 1: 9 x 3 GEAR TRANSMISSION
It’s a fact, you can finish jobs faster with a 9x3 Gear Transmission than with an 8x2 Gear Transmission found on competitive tractors. Three ranges—low, medium and high—give you nine forward speeds and three reverse speeds total.
OPTION 2: HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION
Now you can choose the ideal speed you want to work at, depending on the particular task, thanks to a three-range Hydrostatic Transmission that provides the widest range of variable speeds possible.
Plus, you won’t have to crawl over a floor-mounted shift lever anymore.
SHIFTING MADE SIMPLER AND SAFER
Changing gears has never been so convenient when loading, mowing or grading. We positioned the gears in a simple "H" pattern, and kept reverse in line with second gear. You can change gears without taking your hands off the wheel because the dash-mounted shift lever is located beside the steering wheel.
HEEL-TOE CONTROL
With a Hydrostatic Transmission, you can control both speed and direction with a simple heel-toe pedal. No shifting. No clutching. It's ideal for mowing, loading or blowing snow.
