TRANSMISSION
The Leyland 462 tractor features a 9-speed forward and 3-speed reverse transmission, allowing for versatile speed control and adaptability in various agricultural tasks. This range of gears facilitates efficient operation in both fieldwork and transport scenarios, although the complexity of gear shifting may pose a learning curve for new operators. Additionally, the relatively high number of forward gears can enhance productivity when performing tasks requiring variable speed management, such as plowing or tilling.

MECHANICAL
The Leyland 462 tractor features a potent 4x4 MFWD system that offers superior traction and stability in diverse terrain, making it ideal for agricultural applications. Its hydrostatic power steering ensures ease of maneuverability, reducing operator fatigue during extended use. The 9-speed transmission provides flexibility in speed selection, enhancing both fieldwork efficiency and transport capability; however, this broader range may require more skill for optimal performance across varying tasks.
