Changing The Auto Shift Point - New Holland T7030 Operator's Manual

SECTION 2 - - CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

Changing the Auto Shift Point

IMPORTANT: Changes to the Auto Shift point must
be made before engaging the Auto Shift function.
To suit different applications, the point at which the
transmission makes an automatic gear shift may be
adjusted from the default setting of 20%. Auto Shift
gear changes are related to an increase or decrease
in engine speed which can be set at 5, 10, 15, 20 or
25 percent.
NOTE: For Auto Transport operations the shift point
will automatically default to 20% and remain at that
setting.
With the shift point set at 10%, a transmission upshift
will occur every time the engine speed increases by
10%. Consequently, as the engine speed decreases
by the same amount, the transmission will make a
downshift.
It is recommended that during field operations the
shift point is set at a low percentage.
To change the shift point, depress and hold the
AUTO function switch for at least one second. The
current shift point figure appears in the Display of
Gears and the 'ramp' symbol (1) begins to flash.

Depress the AUTO function switch repeatedly to
scroll through the shift points.
With the new shift point selected, release the AUTO
switch and pause for five seconds. The new setting
will be memorised and the display will return to
normal.
IMPORTANT: At key- -off (engine stop), electronic
programme settings made during tractor operation
are transferred from the operating memory to the
129
main memory. To provide sufficient time for the data
to transfer, allow a minimum of five seconds delay
before turning the key on again.
