TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The McCormick Intl CT47 features a robust 16-speed synchro shuttle hydrostatic transmission, enhancing maneuverability and ease of operation, especially in tight spaces. The option of a 32-speed shuttle with creeper gear provides exceptional versatility for tasks requiring precise speed control, such as planting or tilling. While the advanced transmission systems improve operational efficiency, they may increase maintenance complexity and require skillful operation to exploit their full potential.

TRANSMISSION 1

The McCormick Intl CT47 features a synchro shuttle transmission, allowing for smooth and efficient directional changes without the need to disengage the clutch, enhancing productivity in varied field scenarios. With 16 forward and reverse gears, it provides a wide range of speed options for optimal performance across different tasks, from plowing to transport. However, operators must be cautious during gear shifts to avoid potential wear on the transmission components.

Type synchro shuttle
Gears 16 forward and reverse

TRANSMISSION 2

The McCormick Intl CT47 features a hydrostatic transmission, providing seamless speed control and ease of operation, especially in tight spaces or on varied terrain. Its infinite forward and reverse gears enhance maneuverability, making it ideal for tasks such as precision farming or landscaping. However, hydrostatic systems may have higher maintenance costs compared to traditional gear systems, particularly in high-load applications.

Gears infinite forward and reverse

TRANSMISSION 3

The McCormick Intl CT47 features a versatile shuttle transmission with a creeper gear option, providing 32 forward and 16 reverse speeds, enabling precise control for various tasks such as tilling or transporting heavy loads. This wide gear range enhances its ability to operate efficiently in diverse terrains, but its complexity may require more maintenance and operator training. Ideal for farmers needing adaptability in both field work and road travel, the CT47's configuration supports effective power management and maneuverability.

Gears 32 forward and 16 reverse

MECHANICAL

The McCormick Intl CT47 tractor features a 4x4 MFWD chassis for enhanced traction on varied terrains, making it suitable for diverse agricultural tasks. Its 16-speed synchro shuttle hydrostatic transmission allows for smooth operation and excellent control, while the optional 32-speed shuttle with creeper gear provides versatility for tasks requiring precision, such as tilling or planting. However, the two-post folding ROPS may limit protection compared to a full cab, impacting safety in adverse weather or rough conditions.
