TRANSMISSION

The John Deere 5039C features a collar shift gear transmission with 8 forward and 2 reverse gears, allowing controlled shifting within two ranges. An advantage of this system is enhanced torque control at various speeds for effective field work; however, the requirement to stop and disengage the clutch to change gears can hinder operational efficiency during fast-paced tasks. It's ideal for tasks that demand precision but may not be suitable for applications requiring rapid gear changes.

Type collar shift gear
Gears 8 forward and 2 reverse
Description Four gears (1-4), plus reverse (R), in two ranges (A/B). Tractor must be stopped, and clutch used, to shift gear or range.

SPEEDS

Description With 13.6x28 rear tires.

MECHANICAL

The John Deere 5039C features a 4x2 2WD chassis, which enhances fuel efficiency but limits traction on uneven terrains compared to 4WD models. Its power steering improves maneuverability, making it ideal for tasks in confined spaces; however, the open operator station may expose the driver to elements, impacting comfort during prolonged use. The 8-speed collar shift transmission provides versatility for different operational speeds, making it suitable for a variety of farming applications, though the manual shifting may require more operator skill than automatic systems.
