14. Travel speed limiter
The highest travel speed is reachable when the engine
rpm is at around the middle level with the maximum
travel speed range.
This provides for a fuel-efficient run while traveling
along roads, pulling a trailer, and so on. Step on the
foot throttle, and the engine rpm rises proportionally
and the travel speed goes up accordingly.
But the engine speed is limited to 2080 rpm or so, and
it does not increase even if the foot throttle is
increased.
When the main gear shift lever is set to the
[H-6]
position, the
rev-limiter
indicator illuminates.

15. Main gear shift lever
The main gear shift is fully synchronized to shift without
stopping.
IMPORTANT :
• The main gear shift may be shifted between
speeds on-the-go, but the clutch must be
depressed.
16. Range gear shift lever
The range gear shift can only be shifted when the
tractor is completely stopped and the clutch is
depressed.
IMPORTANT :
• To avoid transmission damage, depress the
clutch pedal and stop the tractor before shifting
between ranges.
16.1 Creep speed (if equipped)
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or death:
• When you leave the tractor, be sure to apply the
parking brake and stop the engine.
• In applying the brakes:
– The torque of the wheel axle is extremely
high while creep speed is being used. Be
sure to step down on the clutch pedal
completely before applying the brakes, or
they will not work.
– When starting to operate the tractor, be sure
to release the parking brakes.
Misuse of the brakes may cause damage to
the transmission and is therefore not
acceptable to KUBOTA for coverage under
the warranty.
IMPORTANT :
• Press the clutch pedal completely down and
stop the tractor's motion before shifting the
range gear shift lever.
Shift the range gear shift lever to
to obtain low
speeds.
This shifting requires clutch operation.
