TRANSMISSION 2
The New Holland 8770 features a creeper range integrated into its standard power shift transmission, enhancing its versatility for slow-speed operations such as precise tilling or planting. The 32 forward and 18 reverse gears provide a wide operational spectrum, allowing the operator to select optimal speed and torque settings based on task requirements. While the creeper functionality improves control, it requires careful management of the inching pedal and toggle button for seamless operation, which may pose a learning curve for some operators.
