SECTION 2 - OPERATION
2-38
The powershift transmission is operated by a
single control lever, 1. Because the
transmission has only one control lever, it is
extremely easy to use.
NOTE: The control lever is equipped with a
neutral lock button, 2. The control lever
may only be moved to the forward or
reverse positions if the neutral lock button
on the control lever knob is depressed.
Neutral may be selected without
depressing the neutral lock button.
The control lever is used to select forward or
reverse travel and to change transmission
speeds. Move the lever forward for forward
travel and rearward for reverse travel.
IMPORTANT: Shifting the transmission at low
throttle setting anda light draft loadwill extend
clutch life.
The control lever is also used to make
instantaneous upward or downward gear
ratio changes. Nudge the lever to the right for
upward changes and to the l eft for downward
changes. (In this context, “nudge” means
move the lever and then release.)
Consecutive gear ratio changes may be
made, either by nudging the lever several
times or by holding the lever to the left or right
and allowing the transmission to shift through
the gear ratios automatically.
NOTE: Reverse gears are displayed as Rl
and R2.
