TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The McCormick Intl CT28 features a 12-speed synchro shuttle hydrostatic transmission, facilitating smooth and efficient direction changes without the need to clutch, ideal for loader applications and tight maneuvering. Its hydrostatic drive provides seamless speed control, enhancing productivity in varied terrain. However, the complexity of the system may increase maintenance requirements compared to traditional mechanical transmissions.

12-speed synchro shuttle hydrostatic

TRANSMISSION 1

The McCormick Intl CT28 features a synchro shuttle transmission, offering smooth gear shifts between forward and reverse which is advantageous for tasks requiring frequent direction changes, like loader work. With 12 forward and reverse gears, operators can efficiently navigate various terrain and optimize power delivery for different applications, ensuring versatility in field operations. However, the complexity of the synchro shuttle can increase maintenance requirements, so regular servicing is crucial to sustain performance.

Type	synchro shuttle
Gears	12 forward and reverse

TRANSMISSION 2

The McCormick Intl CT28 tractor features a hydrostatic transmission, providing seamless control of speed and torque, ideal for applications requiring frequent directional changes or precise movements. With its infinite (3-range) gears for forward and reverse, operators can efficiently adjust to varying workloads without compromising power or performance. This combination enhances maneuverability in tight spaces, making it suitable for tasks such as landscaping or small farm operations, though it may require more maintenance than conventional gear systems.

MECHANICAL

The McCormick Intl CT28's 4x4 MFWD configuration provides excellent traction and stability, particularly beneficial for navigating uneven terrain. Its wet disc brake system improves stopping performance and reduces maintenance compared to dry brakes, while the 12-speed synchro shuttle transmission allows for versatile speed management, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks. However, the two-post folding ROPS may offer limited protection compared to full cabs, which could be a consideration for safety in hazardous environments.
