Synchromesh Transmission Control Levers
The synchromesh transmission is controlled by two
control levers. Range shift lever (1) and gearshift lever
(2).
The transmission has three forward gears, low, medium,
high and reverse gear controlled by the range shift
lever (1). Within each range, including reverse, there
are four synchronized speeds, 1 to 4, controlled by
gearshift lever (2). The synchronized speeds allow for
easier shifting within each range. This combination
allows for twelve forward speeds and four reverse
speeds.
Powershift Transmission Control Lever with
Neutral Lock (1407 Twindisc and CAT TA22
Transmission)
The Powershift transmission control lever (3) 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. A neutral-lock
switch (4) is also fitted to the lever.
NOTE: The control lever may only be moved to the
forward or reverse positions if the neutral lock latch
on the control lever knob is depressed. Neutral may be
selected without depressing the neutral lock latch.
The Powershift transmission control lever is also used
to make instantaneous upward or downward speed
changes. Move and then release the lever to the right
for upward changes and to the left for downward
changes. See “Transmission Operation” in this section
for details.
Hand Throttle Control Lever
The lever (5) controls engine speed. Push forward to
progressively increase engine speed. Pull rearward to
reduce engine speed.
Cigarette lighter
Push the lighter (6) in until it latches. When it pops
out, remove from its socket and return after use.
Cup holder
A cup holder (7) is provided for convenience.
