Current developments in tractor transmission design has galloped to new heights with the introduction of CVT, Power shift, Power shuttle, hydrostatic etc besides the vastly available synchromesh and constant-mesh gearboxes. In contrary to the above existing facts of new powertrain development, there is a definite market need to revamp the heritage tractor models to be equipped with the modern transmission systems. This will help customers to have the advanced drivetrain features in the legacy tractors that have won many hearts. One such modernization was the development of new power shuttle transmission in legacy tractor models for TAFE tractors. Power shuttle primarily enables a tractor - in this case, to go forward and reverse by operating a wet clutch. A flick of lever, usually on the steering column changes the direction of the tractor at the same speed of the gear selected.
