12. Main gear shift lever

WARNING
To avoid personal injury or death:
• Before moving the main gear shift lever (1
3 4), make sure the pilot lamp is on. If
the pilot lamp fails to come on, stop the tractor
completely and start the gear shifting all over.
• Do not shift between [Ls] and [Hs] on a downhill
slope. The shifting may fail. Be sure to do the
shifting before going downhill.
8 speeds can be selected with the main gear shift lever.
The main gear shift is fully synchronized to shift without
stopping.
IMPORTANT :
• The main gear shift may be shifted between
speeds on-the-go, but the clutch must be
depressed.
Shifting between [Ls] and [Hs]
1. Keep the engine running and the main gear shift
lever at "neutral". Move the lever against the left-
side face, and the speed changes each time
between [Ls] and [Hs]. Be sure to use the clutch
while shifting.
2. The pilot lamps (low) and (high) indicate that the
shift is changed between [Ls] and [Hs].
3. The buzzer sounds when the shifting is underway
with both the pilot lamps (low) and (high) off.

13. Range gear shift lever

The range gear shift can only be shifted when the
tractor is completely stopped and the clutch is
depressed.
IMPORTANT :
• To avoid transmission damage, depress clutch
pedal and stop the tractor before shifting
between ranges.

14. Hydraulic-shuttle shift lever

Raise up and shift the shuttle shift lever forward to
obtain forward speeds and shift back to obtain reverse

IMPORTANT :
• The hydraulic-shuttle shift lever may be shifted
while the tractor is moving slowly.
