Operating instructions
Gear shifting 63
Gear shifting
The transmission has neutral position, nine forward and three
reverse speeds. All with automatic direct drive clutch (lockup).
The gear-shifting system is fully automatic, but the automatic
control can be limited by the operator via the gear selector control.
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 forwards. See also
Overspeed Protection on page 65.
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.
