TRANSMISSION 1
The Oliver G1355 features a 6-speed forward and 2-speed reverse transmission, providing operators with a versatile range for various field conditions and applications. This configuration allows for enhanced control and efficiency during operations such as plowing or transporting heavy loads. However, the limited number of speeds may pose challenges in situations requiring frequent gear changes, particularly in hilly or uneven terrain.
| Gears | 6 forward and 2 reverse |
TRANSMISSION 2
The Oliver G1355 features a three-range power shift transmission with 18 forward and 6 reverse gears, providing versatile speed options for various tasks. Its hydraulically-activated shifting allows for smoother transitions under load, enhancing operator comfort and efficiency. However, the dry disc clutch may require more frequent maintenance compared to wet clutches; thus, considering the operational scenarios and frequency of use is crucial for long-term performance.
