TRANSMISSION
The Hesston 766 tractor features a transmission with 12 forward and 4 reverse gears, providing versatility for various applications and terrains. The wide gear range allows for optimal speed control during operations such as tilling or hauling, but the complexity of shifting may require skilled operation to avoid gear grinding. For scenarios requiring frequent directional changes, the abundant reverse gears can enhance maneuverability, making it suitable for tight spaces or intricate field layouts.
