TRANSMISSION 1

The Zetor 6718 features a 10-speed forward and 2-speed reverse gear transmission, providing versatile operation for various agricultural tasks. This range of gears allows for efficient power management, accommodating both high-speed transport and low-speed fieldwork. However, the complexity of managing a 10-speed system may require more operator training to optimize performance in diverse scenarios.

Gears 10 forward and 2 reverse

TRANSMISSION 2

The Zetor 6718's optional multi-power transmission enhances operational flexibility with a partial power shift, allowing quick transitions between two speeds for varying field conditions. Its configuration of 20 forward and 4 reverse gears offers extensive versatility for tasks, though the transmission complexity may reduce ease of maintenance. Ideal for diverse agricultural applications, this tractor maximizes efficiency in both heavy-duty and fine-tuning operations.
