TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The LS i36 tractor features a 12-speed synchronized shuttle hydrostatic transmission, providing smooth and efficient operation during directional changes. This design enhances productivity in tasks like loader operations or tillage, as it allows for fine control over speed and torque. However, the complexity of hydrostatic systems may require increased maintenance and technical expertise compared to simpler transmission types.
| Description | 12-speed synchronized shuttle hydrostatic |
TRANSMISSION 1
The LS i36 tractor features a synchronized shuttle transmission with 12 forward and reverse gears, facilitating smooth gear shifts during operation, which enhances maneuverability in tight spaces. The gear configuration allows for optimized speed selection for various tasks, from tilling to hauling. However, synchronized shuttles may require more maintenance compared to unsynchronized systems, so regular checks on the transmission fluid and filters are advisable to ensure longevity and performance.
| Type | synchronized shuttle |
| Gears | 12 forward and reverse |
TRANSMISSION 2
The LS i36 tractor features a hydrostatic transmission, offering infinite speed selection across its three forward and reverse ranges, which enhances maneuverability, particularly in tight working conditions. This design provides smooth operation and ease of use, ideal for applications requiring precise speed control, such as landscaping or sensitive tillage tasks. However, the hydrostatic system may be slightly less fuel-efficient compared to traditional gear-driven transmissions, especially under heavy load conditions.

| Gears | infinite (3-range) forward and reverse |
MECHANICAL
The LS i36 tractor features a 4x4 MFWD (Mechanical Front Wheel Drive) chassis, providing improved traction and stability on varied terrains. Its hydrostatic power steering enhances maneuverability, making it suitable for tight spaces and demanding agricultural tasks. The 12-speed synchronized shuttle hydrostatic transmission allows for smooth shifting and precise control, advantageous for tasks requiring varied speed settings, though it may require some acclimatization for optimal operation.
