TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The CBT 3000 tractor features a 6-speed gearbox, enabling greater torque flexibility for varying field conditions, while its 4-speed option offers simplified operation for less experienced users. The 6-speed variant excels in precision with optimal RPM adjustments, enhancing fuel efficiency and reducing strain on the engine during different tasks. However, the 4-speed option may limit adaptability in complex agricultural scenarios where variable ground conditions demand rapid speed changes.

Description 6-speed/4-speed

TRANSMISSION 1

The CBT 3000 tractor features a 6-speed forward and 2-speed reverse gear transmission, providing versatility for various tasks, from plowing to towing. With an oil capacity of 32 quarts (30.3 liters), it ensures adequate lubrication and cooling, which can be advantageous for extended operational periods. However, operators should monitor the oil level closely to prevent potential overheating or mechanical wear during intensive use.
