Farmall 706 control lever question

jimmyO · May 23, 2017

Hi all;
I'm roaming the internet for info about farmall 706 tractors, maybe getting a replacement for the one I burned up.
My old one had two transmission levers on the right, shift (high,low, neutral, reverse)and range.
I'm looking at a photo that has an additional lever on the LEFT,
Can anyone tell me what that was for?
Thanks,
Jim

TA or Torque Amplifier. Possibly your old 706 had it deleted (factory delete) or handle removed when low quits working (farm delete). Search 706 TA you find more than you want to know.

Thank you Doug. I had a 504 with the TA, but didn't get to use that tractor much. It would have been good to have on the 706 with the snowblower. Reverse low gear wasn't quite slow enough, and it would get bogged down in the deeper stuff. If I get another 706 I'll try to get one with the TA.

I have a 706 gas with working TA for sale if you're interested.

I would opt for a 56 series for the shifting mechanism problems the 06 series had.
