| Description | With 16.9-34 rear tires. |
TRANSMISSION 3
The New Holland TS90 features a Synchro Command transmission with 12 forward and reverse gears, enabling fluid shifting while in motion between high and medium ranges, enhancing operational efficiency. The 60-quart oil capacity supports extended service intervals, but the requirement to stop for low range engagement may limit responsiveness in dynamic field conditions. This design is ideal for users needing versatile speed options for various tasks, albeit with some downtime during range transitions.
| Transmission | Synchro Command |
| Gears | 12 forward and reverse |
| Oil capacity | 60qts / 56.8L |
| Description | Four gears provided in three ranges, plus a shuttle lever. Tractor may be shifted on the move, using the clutch, between gears, high or medium range, and forward-reverse shuttle. Tractor must be stopped to enter low range. |
SPEEDS 3
| Description | 16.9-38 rear tires. |
TRANSMISSION 4
The New Holland TS90 features a Synchro Dual Command transmission, offering 24 forward and reverse gears, enhancing versatility for various field applications. The under-speed power shift capability allows seamless shifting without clutching, which increases operational efficiency, particularly in tasks requiring frequent directional changes. However, the complexity of the transmission system may require more maintenance and operator training to maximize its benefits.
| Transmission | Synchro Dual Command |
| Gears | 24 forward and reverse |
| Oil capacity | 60qts / 56.8L |
| Description | Same as Synchro Command, with an additional under-speed power shift button on the gear lever. The direct/underspeed ranges may be shifted on the move without the clutch. A 'dump button' on the shuttle lever can be used for clutchless shifting between forward and reverse. |
