  • Page 11: Drive Mode

    Operation Drive Mode • Automatically selects the start gear (see Note*). The selected start gear will vary depending on several vehicle inputs like load, grade, and axle/transmission ratio. This start gear can be changed by using the up/down buttons, as long as the selection still falls into a gear that would allow the vehicle to launch without allowing the transmis- sion to obtain damage.

  • Page 12: Manual Mode

    Operation MANUAL Mode MANUAL mode should be used whenever the driver wants to select the shifts instead of letting UltraShift select them automatically. For example, when the driver is moving around the yard, over railroad tracks, or on steep grades. •...
  • Page 13 Operation Warning: UltraShift PLUS initiates upshifts from MANUAL and LOW for engine over speed protection. Some engines do not use the engine overspeed protection. • The system will automatically shift or inhibit shifts to prevent over- speed or under-speed of the engine. •...

  • Page 14: Low Mode

    Operation LOW Mode LOW mode should be used to maximize engine braking and minimize the use of the brake pedal. For example, when driving down long grades or when coming to a stop. • Selects lowest available gear for start gear. (see Note *). The starting gear cannot be changed in LOW mode.

  • Page 16: Urge To Move

    Operation Urge to Move • Urge to Move allows the vehicle to automatically start moving when the transmission is in gear and the driver releases the service brake. After the vehicle has launched the vehicle will creep at a constant speed at engine idle without the need to hold the throttle pedal posi- tion.

  • Page 17: Creep

    Operation Creep • Creep allows the vehicle to be driven at a constant speed at engine idle without the need to hold the throttle pedal position. The configu- ration is useful for slow speed applications where steady vehicle speed is required (e.g. dump / spreader applications). •...

  • Page 18: Blended Pedal

    Operation Stopping: Release the accelerator (vehicle will creep at constant engine idle). • Upshifts and Downshifts can be made while at constant engine idle by pushing the Upshift / Downshift buttons. Apply service brake. Blended Pedal • Blended Pedal allows the driver to directly control the clutch engage- ment through accelerator positioning.

  • Page 19: Transmission Configuration Switch

    Operation Launching: Engage the desired gear. Release service brake. Apply the amount of throttle pedal needed to accelerate the vehicle to the desired speed or desired distance. Apply full accelerator to accelerate the vehicle above idle. Stopping: Release the accelerator. Apply service brake.

    Operation Note: If the vehicle is equipped with remote Upshift/Downshift Buttons, the transmission can be remotely shifted after the SSSPTO engagement pro- cedure is completed. However the SSPTO may come to a stop while the transmission is completing the shift. Note: If the vehicle is equipped with a remote clutch control, the vehicle throt- tle pedal cannot be used for transmission clutch engagement in SSPTO mode, the remote clutch control must be used to engage the clutch.
