TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The McCormick Intl CX60 tractor features an 8-speed synch shuttle transmission, providing smooth directional changes and enhanced control for various tasks, suitable for both field and transport work. Additionally, the 16-speed two-speed power shift allows for precise gear selection, optimizing performance and fuel efficiency under varying load conditions. While the advanced transmission offers versatility and efficiency, operators may face a learning curve to fully exploit its capabilities.

Gears 8 forward and reverse
Clutch 304mm dry disc

TRANSMISSION 2

The McCormick Intl CX60 features a two-speed power shift transmission with 16 forward and 8 reverse gears, providing enhanced flexibility in varying field conditions and tasks. This allows for optimal torque management and adaptability, improving overall efficiency during operations such as plowing or hauling. However, the complexity of the power shift system may necessitate more frequent maintenance and operator training to ensure seamless function.

MCCORMICK INTL CX60 TIRES

The McCormick Intl CX60 offers a robust 4WD option with larger front tires (11.2R24) for enhanced traction and stability, making it suitable for varied terrains and heavy-duty applications. The 2WD configuration, while potentially more fuel-efficient and cost-effective, may struggle with traction in wet or loose soil conditions due to its narrower front tires (7.50-16). Operators must consider the specific operational requirements and ground conditions to optimize performance and reduce soil compaction.
