The PowrReverser transmission provides 16 forward speeds and 16 reverse (16F/16R) speeds and is equipped with the factory-installed high/low creeper. This transmission comes standard with a dual speed 540/540 Economy power take-off (PTO) and is ideal for applications requiring frequent directional changes.
Hydraulic wet forward and reverse clutches maximize durability and outlast the life of any dry clutch. When tractors are run by multiple operators with a variety of experience levels, a wet clutch is the best way to maintain transmission integrity and performance while decreasing clutch replacement costs.
Two platform-mounted levers offer easy and comfortable shifting for a pleasant operator experience. The gear-shift lever is easy to reach and the less-used range lever is shorter. Unique knobs make it easy to distinguish between the two.
The forward lever selects one of four speeds, all synchronized shifts for on-the-go shifting with the use of the clutch. The rear lever selects ranges A, B, C, or D. Ranges C and D are fully synchronized. When upshifting, operators can move from range C to D without stopping the tractor. On the downshift, operators can move from D all the way to B without stopping. There is a separate lever for creeper operation.
16F/16R transmission includes:
Wet clutch
Platform-mounted shift levers (four gears, four ranges)
Left-hand reverser
Constant-mesh helical-cut gears
Pressure-lubricated top shaft
Positive park pawl
Neutral start switch
Gear shift lever
Range shift lever
Maximum productivity is achieved with clutchless hydraulic shifting between forward and reverse and is ideal for any applications that require frequent directional switches in tight spaces. An electrohydraulic fingertip directional lever control allows the operator to effortlessly switch directions with a small finger motion. The control is located on the left side of the instrument console and selects forward, reverse, and neutral positions. It also allows the operator to steer and shift direction with the left hand, freeing the right hand to operate other tractor controls, such as the loader, rear implements, or hand throttle. The PowrReverser™ has a built-in engagement override valve for additional safety. This valve requires the clutch pedal to be depressed one time after each engine start before the transmission will begin to operate normally, giving the operator another opportunity to put all focus on the tractor.

NOTE: A neutral start switch requires the directional lever be in the neutral position to start the engine.
The creeper gears are accessible by engaging the creeper lever into rabbit or turtle position.

All tractors have economy power take-of (E-PTO) (a fuel saving feature) that allows customers to operate rear implements at 540 PTO rpm but at lower engine rpm. The result is lower engine vibration, reduced noise, less wear and tear on the engine, reduced fuel consumption and increased operator comfort.
