I have a WD, first gear is too fast for what I want. I was wondering if they made or offer a lower gear.
Thank you Steve

Could a lower ratio ring and pinion gear be the answer? Of course, this would make all gears slower. I don't know if they are available or not, but it may be an option....James

Steve what do you use your Wd for ? My Wd was too fast in first gear for the New Holland 269 hay baler, I had to start just raking single windrows to keep from shearing pins on baler. Slipping the hand clutch is an option for getting through tough spots while doing PTO work and it does not slow the PTO down. Those hand clutches are tough but are not for slipping all day long, and idling down is not an option for pto work. I seem to remember that some of the Wds around seemed to be a little slower than others but do not know the difference if there was any. On guy had two that they baled with. and one drove slower than the other while both balers where the same model and running the same strokes per minute the tractors were both Wds but where not the same year. So maybe there may have been a difference in the gears I do not know for sure.

Interesting problem. Can you tell us why first gear is too fast? Normal procedure to go slower than first is to use the hand clutch and let it slip as much as needed. (I'm assuming idling way back won't work for you either.)

I've had this problem also attempting to use a brush hog, first is too fast in high/thick brush. Doesn't slipping the hand clutch slow the PTO also? Can't try it currently as I'm doing some engine work.

Greg, the hand clutch is designed to do exactly that function, originally intended for combining, it can be slipped all day long.

Thanks Dave,
I just got this tractor and haven't been able to play with it much yet. Thank you for your help, I'll definitely give it a try.

Don't think so, never heard of a lower first, don't remember seeing it in the parts book. Sorry.
