Using the shifting automatics

The tractor has two automatic gear-changing programs, Auto1 and Auto2.
With the Auto1 program, the Powershift gears are changed according to the
load and the engine speed.
With the Auto2 program, you can program the engine speed limits for shifting
the gears up and down.
In the Auto1 mode, the driving speed is controlled with the drive pedal, hand
throttle or the driving speed cruise control. The speed control method that gives
the highest value overrides the other methods. The automatics handle the
transmission and engine control, focusing on optimal fuel economy when the
engine load allows. The Powershift gear in use has no effect on the driving
speed. The Auto1 mode includes a kickdown functionality, in which pressing the
driving pedal fully down automatically shifts the Powershift gear down and
provides the best possible power instead of best possible torque. However, the
kickdown does not shift down from D range to C range even if the C-D shifting
automatics are in use.
NOTE: Different settings may limit the gears or engine speed available for use.
In the Auto2 mode, the shifting limits are locked to engine speed limits that the
driver has set. The Auto2 mode is used in certain tasks where the power take-off
is in use or in situations where the Auto1 mode would change into an unsuitable
gear.
