3.2 Explanation of components
22. Transmission auto shift/manual shift selector switch
This switch (22) is used to switch the transmission between auto
shift and manual shift and to set the shift point for auto shift.
At the "L" and "H" positions, the transmission shifts to auto shift
and the auto shift pilot lamp on the machine monitor lights up.
Normally, set to auto shift.
MANUAL position:
Transmission is set to manual shift and speed range is range
displayed by shift indicator.
L position:
Travel speed when shifting up is low
(normal travel, travel on flat ground)
H position:
Travel speed when shifting up is high
(travel on slope, full speed travel)
For details of the manual shift, see "Manual shift (3-68)".
For details of the auto-shift, see "Automatic shift (3-68)".
23. Transmission cut-off switch
WARNING
When moving the machine off on an uphill slope, set the trans-
mission cut-off switch to the OFF position, depress the accelera-
tor pedal while keeping the left brake pedal depressed, then
gradually release the brake pedal and allow the machine to
move. In this way the machine can be prevented from traveling
backwards.
Press this switch (23) to turn on and off the transmission cut-off
system.
When the switch is pressed, the pilot lamp lights up and the sys-
tem is turned ON. The transmission is shifted to neutral at the
adjusted brake pedal depression position.
Normally, keep the switch at the ON position.
For details of the method of adjusting the cut-off position, see
"Adjusting transmission cut-off position (3-121)".
Position (a): ON
The left brake pedal acts in the same way as the normal brake,
and at the same time, sets the transmission to neutral.
Position (b): OFF
The left brake pedal acts in the same way as the normal brake
(right brake pedal).
The brake pedal position where the cut-off system is actuated
can be adjusted by using the transmission cut-off set switch on
the right switch panel.
