TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Branson 2515 tractor features a 12-speed synchronised shuttle transmission, offering smooth transitions between forward and reverse gears, enhancing operator control during tasks requiring frequent directional changes. The hydrostatic option provides an infinitely variable speed control, allowing for precision in varied applications such as mowing or loader work, which is advantageous for user comfort. However, the complexity of the transmission may pose challenges in maintenance and may require specialized knowledge for servicing.

TRANSMISSION 1

The Branson 2515 tractor features a synchronized shuttle transmission, allowing for smoother direction changes without clutch operation, which enhances operational efficiency. Its 12 forward and reverse gears provide versatile speed options, making it suitable for various tasks such as towing or fieldwork. However, the dry disc clutch may require more frequent maintenance in demanding applications, presenting a potential challenge for heavy-duty users.

Gears 12 forward and reverse
Clutch dry disc

TRANSMISSION 2

The Branson 2515 tractor features a hydrostatic transmission, providing seamless control over speed and direction, ideal for applications requiring precise maneuverability. Its infinite (3-range) forward and reverse gears enhance operational flexibility, enabling efficient adaptation to varying terrain and workload demands. While the hydrostatic system offers ease of use, maintenance may be more complex compared to traditional gear transmissions, necessitating regular checks for optimal performance.

MECHANICAL

The Branson 2515 tractor features a 4x4 MFWD (Mechanical Front Wheel Drive) system, providing enhanced traction in varied terrains, ideal for agricultural applications. Its 12-speed sync shuttle/hydrostatic transmission offers smooth gear transitions, allowing for versatile speed control suitable for both fieldwork and transport tasks. However, the two-post folding ROPS (Roll Over Protective Structure) may limit operator protection in certain rollover scenarios, so additional safety measures should be considered.
