Gear shifting
Reversing lever
PGPPN184
Reversing lever selects direction of movements of the tractor (forward, backward).
F - travel forward (16 speeds)
R - travel backward (16 speeds)
The reversing gearbox includes 16 reverse speeds that are approximately the same as the forward speeds.
Therefore consider carefully when shifting a reverse gear for the given character of your work.
Perform reverse shifting with clutch pedal depressed and tractor in standstill.
The lever neutral position is indicated by the symbol N (1) on the instrument panel display.
When shifting individual gear speed (1-4) or reversing (F-R) observe the instructions for
putting the tractor in motion and gear shifting in this manual. When the tractor has been started and
is still standing, depress the clutch pedal and wait for approx. 2 seconds. Only then shift the required
gear speed or select the reverse direction.
To increase safety and to avoid unexpected situations use the foot brake during the shifting as well.
The tractors are equipped with a four-speed synchronized
transmission, a two-speed torque multiplier, a reverser
and a two-speed reduction.
The four-speed transmission is operated by the main
gearshift lever (1) with buttons for the torque multiplier
control.
The gearshift scheme is located on the gearshift knob
label and on the sticker on the right bottom windshield.
Reverse gear can only be shifted using the reverse shift
lever.
