Down-Shifts Manual Mode
The transmission can be shifted from 4th to 1st gear without reducing machine or
engine speed. If 1st gear is to be selected from 3rd or 4th gear, the transmission
will down shift to 2nd gear for approximately 1.2 seconds and then shift to 1st
gear. For smooth operation and operator comfort, reduce engine speed before
down shifts.
Down-Shift Button, Manual Mode
The down-shift button is used to shift the transmission from 2nd gear to 1st. The
transmission will shift back to 2nd gear if (1) the down-shift button is pressed
again or (2) if the transmission control lever is moved to NEUTRAL and then to
FORWARD or REVERSE.
Automatic Mode Operation
To put the transmission in the automatic mode press the top of the Autoshift
switch.
Shifting, Automatic Mode
When the transmission is in the automatic mode, the transmission will start to
move in 1st gear (when the machine is stopped) and automatically up-shift until
the gear selected has been reached. The transmission will also down-shift
automatically as the speed decreases.
Down-shift Button, Automatic Mode
The down-shift button is used to shift down through the gears in single steps.
Each time the switch is pressed down the transmission will shift down one gear
range until 1st gear is reached. Once the down-shift button has been pressed
down the transmission is taken out of the automatic mode. The transmission will
remain in the gear that was selected by the down-shift button. It will return to the
automatic mode when (1) the transmission control lever gear changes, or (2) the
transmission control lever is moved to NEUTRAL and then to FORWARD or to
REVERSE.
