TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Zetor Proxima 75 tractor features a 10-speed synchromesh transmission, ensuring smoother gear shifts with minimal wear, ideal for general farming tasks. The 12-speed shuttle provides efficient direction changes without halting operations, advantageous for loader work or transporting goods. The 20-speed creeper option enhances low-speed control for precision tasks, such as plowing or cultivating in tight spaces, but may require familiarity for optimal utilization.

TRANSMISSION 1

The Zetor Proxima 75 features a 10-speed forward and 2-speed reverse synchromesh transmission, allowing for smooth shifting and effective power management during varied agricultural tasks. The 310mm hydraulic cerametallic clutch enhances durability and performance under high-stress conditions, providing efficient power transfer. However, while the synchromesh design promotes ease of operation, it may require more maintenance to ensure optimal transmission performance over time.

TRANSMISSION 2

The Zetor Proxima 75 features a synchronized shuttle transmission, allowing for smoother gear changes, which is advantageous in tasks requiring frequent directional shifts, such as plowing or loading. Its 12 forward and reverse gears provide versatility for various applications, enabling optimal power management across different terrain and loads. However, operators may face a learning curve with synchronization during high-load conditions, requiring practice to maximize efficiency.
