Buying a MF 40B non running, with instant reverse I believe, (no clutch 2 pedals on the right linked to throttle/trans) Wondering if this can be towed with this transmission without damaging it? It has 2 gear levers, I assume 3 or 4 speed and hi/low? Does anyone know about these trannys? Thanks, any advice.

I have a similar 30E with Instant Reverse. When you start the unit, you must depress both pedals together at least 1" down, I
believe this gives you a neutral position. On the transmission, the left lever is High/Low range and the right hand lever is
1st/2nd gear. You have 4 forward speeds and 4 reverse speeds. As far as towing, maybe someone out there has more experience and
will chime in!

Yes, just place the hi-lo lever in neutral for towing. Then the trans won't be driven by the wheels at all.

I just bought the same M40 B with loader and backhoe. Would like to keep in touch as apparently these industrial tractors are a rare breed. I got mine to start by putting in neutral and depressing both brake pedals..
Mine runs great and transmission seems to work well. I have leaking cylinders to repair before I can give it a real workout.
