Operating instructions
Gear shifting 63
Gear shifting
The transmission has six forward gears with automatic direct
clutch (lock-up), neutral position, and two reverse gears.
The gearshifting system is fully automatic, but automatic control
can be limited by the operator with the gear selector.
The electronics of the transmission registers the travelling speed
of the machine, acceleration and the engine loading. Based on
these parameters the electronics controls the gear shifting
automatically providing the best comfort, fuel consumption and
performance.
Gear position D
– Normal gear position for operating forward. See also
Overspeed Protection on page 64.
Gear positions 1, 2 and 3
– Limits upshifting from gears 1, 2, and 3. However, upshifting is
allowed to prevent overspeeding.
Gear position N
Neutral position.
Gear position R
Reverse gear.
Gear-shift inhibitor
Is used for preventing gearshift hunting in certain situations, that is
to say repeated up- and downshifts at short intervals.
The gear-shift inhibitor is disconnected by again pressing the
button or when there is a risk of overspeeding.
WARNING!
Never leave the machine with the gear selector in forward
or reverse, while the engine is running.
