TRANSMISSION OPERATION CONTINUED
Moving Machine from NEUTRAL Using Automodulation

C AU T I O N
Avoid automodulation while machine is under load.
Selecting forward gears six through eight or reverse gears five or six is
NOT recommended.
Failure to follow these cautions may result in damage to equipment.
N OT E
Forward gears one through five and reverse gears one through four are recommended for
automodulation.
Do not change engine speed while automodulating. Harsh shifting will result.
Automodulation entails shifting into forward or reverse gear by moving transmission control switch from NEUTRAL
position to either FORWARD or REVERSE position (Figure 10). Transmission initial gear will engage smoothly via
direction clutch. If initial gear is not desired, use upshift or downshift switch to select desired gear.
