TRANSMISSION 1
The Allis Chalmers 7060 tractor features a Power Director transmission, offering 20 forward and 4 reverse gears, allowing for versatile speed control and efficient operation for varied agricultural tasks. Its partial power shift permits on-the-go engagement via foot switches, enhancing productivity during fieldwork without needing to disengage the clutch. However, the requirement to stop for gear or range changes may limit efficiency in rapidly changing work scenarios.

| Type | partial power shift |
| Gears | 20 forward and 4 reverse |
| Oil capacity | 29.6qts / 28.0L/Allis-Chalmers Power Fluid 821 |
| Description | The Power Director uses a gear shift, range shift, and the two-speed Power Director. The gear shift lever selects one of five forward gears, or reverse. The range shift lever selects between high and low ranges. The tractor must be stopped, and the clutch pedal used, to change the gear or range. Once in motion, the Power Director is operated by means of two foot switches that can be switched, on the move, without the clutch. |

TRANSMISSION 2
The Allis Chalmers 7060 features a partial power shift transmission, providing 12 forward and 2 reverse gears, enhancing operational efficiency and flexibility while in use. Key advantages include seamless gear shifting while in motion, which allows for rapid adjustments in speed and torque, though the requirement to stop and use the clutch for range changes can limit operational fluidity. Maintain proper oil levels with the specified Allis-Chalmers Power Fluid 821 to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the transmission system.

| Type | partial power shift |
| Gears | 12 forward and 2 reverse |
| Oil capacity | 28qts / 26.5L/Allis-Chalmers Power Fluid 821 |
| Description | The power shift transmission uses a gear shift and range shift. The range shift lever selects one of two ranges. The tractor must be stopped, and the clutch used, to change the range. The gear shift selects one of six forward gears, and reverse. The gears can be shifted while the tractor is in motion, simply by moving the lever. The clutch is needed to switch from a forward gear to reverse. |
