TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Shibaura S435 features a 12-speed transmission with synchromesh shuttle operation, allowing for smooth gear transitions and enhanced maneuverability, particularly in tight spaces or during frequent directional changes. This design aids in reducing operator fatigue and increases efficiency in various applications, such as tilling or hauling. However, the complexity of a 12-speed system may lead to increased maintenance requirements compared to simpler transmission designs.

SHIBAURA S435 TIRES
The Shibaura S435 tractor offers both 2WD and 4WD configurations, with standard agricultural tires that enhance agricultural traction and stability. The 2WD model is equipped with wider rear tires (14.9-24), which are advantageous for flotation in soft soils but may reduce maneuverability. In contrast, the 4WD version, featuring front tires (8-16), provides improved traction and handling on uneven terrain, making it ideal for diverse agricultural tasks, particularly in adverse conditions.
