Customers rely on the 6M tractor for many different applications such as loader work, transport, baling, mowing, roadside mowing, snow removal, sugarcane harvest, etc. This requires an extensive transmission portfolio to support the unique requirements of the various applications. The 6M allows the customer to select the controls and speeds to best fit their applications. Operators will have the ability to select transmission solutions offering:
- Gear shift w/push buttons vs single speed levers
- Speeds ranging from 30k/h (19 mph) to 50k/h (31 mph).
- Creeper options with minimum ground speed of 0.27 km/h (0.17 mph)
PowrQuad PLUS transmission
PowerQuad PLUS transmission
PowrQuad PLUS transmissions feature a partial PowerShift technology. An operator selects a desired range using the single gearshift on the right hand console and the gears using the push buttons on the same handle. The PowrQuad PLUS has a declutch function to shift ranges without using the foot clutch pedal. By pressing the declutch button on the transmission shifting lever, it is possible to change the ranges up or down. For specialty uses like vegetable, orchard, peanuts, and other operations that need extremely slow speeds, creeper speeds are available with the PowrQuad PLUS transmission.
AutoQuad PLUS transmission
AUTO mode activation button
The AutoQuad PLUS transmission features all the benefits of a PowrQuad PLUS, with the ability to automatically shift four power shift gears depending on engine rotations per minute (rpm) and load. This allows the customer to select the desired range and allow the tractor to determine the optimal gear within that range. For specialty uses like vegetable, orchard, and other operations that need extremely slow speeds, creeper speeds are available with the AutoQuad PLUS transmission. Depending on the configuration, AutoQuad PLUS transmissions equipped with creeper gears have a minimum ground speed of 0.27 km/h (0.17 mph) and a top speed of 50 km/h (31 mph).
