locating shift pattern decal for a 1490

ratface · Feb 13, 2017

I have searched for the shift decal that shows the pattern of shifting the 1490 syncromesh 12 speed transmission. I just purchased this tractor, it has the shifter right behind the right calf and that shifter has 1,2, 3 and reverse on it. Then there are the range selectors on the left side. I have no idea where to put that range selector. As far as I can tell I don't have the power shift nor the hydra shift versions of the transmission since those levers are missing. This decal illustrates the shift patterns of the syncromesh but it is just beyond readable for me. I would like to replace it but have not found one searching. Does anyone have a source for it or at least a PDF diagram of it somewhere? I'm really just looking to learn it's positions.
