even more time-saving features. Push
the “Auto” button while operating in
the field, and the AutoShift transmis-
sion does the shifting for you within
the four gears of Ranges A (Gears 1 to
4), B (gears 5 to 8) or C (Gears 9 to 12).
When roading, press the AutoShift
button once to shift as needed within
Ranges C or D; press the AutoShift
button twice to move freely from gear
9 through gear 16 and back down as
needed without stopping to shift
between ranges C and D. An illumi-
nated LED gear display, located to the
right of the main shift lever, displays
the gear on tractors equipped with
the AutoShift transmission.

12 x 12 Synchro Command™
transmission with mechanical
shuttle
(Available on Delta models)
The 12x12 transmission is the
picture of simplicity, reliability and
economy. The range lever at the far
right allows you to choose one of
three ranges while the main shift
lever offers four synchronized gears
in each range. A dedicated, in-line
shuttle lever on the left-hand side of
the steering column allows you to
shift between forward and reverse.
24 x 24 Dual Command™ Hi-Lo
transmission with power shuttle
(Available on Delta and Plus models)
The Dual Command transmission
gives you the added convenience of
clutchless forward-reverse shuttling,
as well as twice the number of speed
choices. An underdrive for each of the
twelve forward and reverse gears
effectively increases torque by 27%
and reduces tractor speed by approxi-
mately 22%. Dual Command buttons
are located right on the gearshift lever
to allow you to powershift on-the-go
without clutching. Use the lower
button (tortoise) to engage the under-
drive. Push the upper button (hare)
to disengage Dual Command and
return to direct drive. This transmis-
sion provides the benefit of up to
11 speeds in the two- to eight-mph
working range for maximum versa-
tility. Transport speed is 30 km/h
for 2WD models and 40 km/h for
FWD models.

The 24x24 Dual Command transmission doubles
your gears from 12 to 24. Underdrive button on the
side of the shift lever and on the console (B) allows
you to powershift on-the-go without clutching.
AutoShift™ transmissions provide automatic
shifting in the field or one the road. You program
the shift point and shuttle preferences.
