Clutch Pedal; Powershift Control - New Holland T7030 Operator's Manual

SECTION 2 - - CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

Clutch Pedal

A clutch pedal (1) is provided but is not required for
gear changes or forward/reverse shuttle operations.
The clutch pedal is required only for positioning the
tractor to attach equipment or if operating in confined
spaces when the low ratios do not provide a slow
enough speed, at moderate/low engine speeds, to
give precise control.
NOTE: The clutch pedal incorporates a safety start
device and must be depressed when starting the
tractor engine.
IMPORTANT: To avoid premature wear, do not use
the clutch pedal as a footrest.

Powershift Control

Power Command transmission is operated by
means of a powershift control incorporating two push
buttons. The buttons are used to make upward or
downward gear changes on the move, even when
performing operations such as ploughing, etc.
Each one of the gear ratios may be sequentially
selected using the upshift button (2) or downshift
button (1). A digital display (3) indicates the gear ratio
selected. It is not necessary to depress the clutch
pedal when using the upshift or downshift buttons.
The powershift control may be repositioned to suit
the operator. Loosen the clamp knob (2), move the
control to the most comfortable position by rotating
left or right, or by extending the arm forwards or
rearwards. Tighten the knob securely to clamp the
powershift control in the new position.
To adjust the height of the armrest, loosen the knob
(1). Grasp the armrest at the front and rear then lift
or lower the complete assembly. Re--tighten the
clamp knob securely.
