When changing gears with a WD, does the hand clutch and foot clutch both need to be disengaged at the same time - or can the hand clutch be engaged, push the foot clutch - come to a stop, change gears and move on?
How tolerant is the WD for using the hand clutch to stop the tractor and change gears without using the foot clutch, yet keeping the PTO going - for changing ground speeds and direction fwd/reverse?
Can you mimic an independent PTO with the WD vs the normal live PTO? Is it possible to shift into and out of PTO while moving?
My old MF50, you have to stop the tractor to engage the PTO, but you can disengage it (without a load) while moving. My JD - you can start/stop the PTO regardless of tractor movement - which is handy when using a sprayer or fertilizer spreader.
Just curious as to how the WD is intended to operate.
Thanks!
