TRANSMISSION SHIFT MODE SELECTOR SWITCH
The transmission shift mode selector switch is used to switch
the transmission between the automatic shift and manual, and
also change the shift point when the auto-shift mode is select-
ed.
When this switch is at (B) or (C) position, the transmission is
set in the auto-shift mode and the automatic shift pilot lamp
lights up on the machine monitor. Normally, set it to auto-shift
mode.
Position (A): The manual shift mode is set and the machine
travels at the gear speed displayed on the shift indicator.
Position (B):Travel speed when shifted up is low (level ground,
normal travel)
Position (C):Travel speed when shifted up is high (uphill, full throttle travel)
When most of the machine operations is done on a level ground, selecting position (B) allows shifting up the
gear at a low engine speed, and it enables to reduce the fuel consumption.
