TRANSMISSION
The John Deere 5045E features a partially synchronized SyncShuttle transmission, allowing synchronized forward gear shifts within each range but not between ranges, which may necessitate double-clutching during range shifts. With a total oil capacity of 41.2 quarts, using JD Hy-Gard ensures optimal lubrication for the transmission under various operating conditions. This transmission setup benefits users in applications requiring frequent shifting without heavy load, yet operators must be cautious during range changes to prevent potential gear clash.
| Transmission | SyncShuttle |
| Type | partially synchronized |
| Oil capacity | 41.2qts / 39.0L / JD Hy-Gard |
| Description | Three gears (1-3) plus reverse (R) in each of three ranges (A-C). Shuttle shift between 2 and R in all ranges. Forward gear shifts in-range are synchronized. Shifts between ranges are not synchronized. The SyncShuttle is standard equipment on four-wheel drive models.tran1fwd |
