Shift it however and whenever you want to. Don't be afraid of it or try to sneak up on it. Just grab the lever and pull it, or push it. Forward or reverse, it doesn't matter. It was designed to be used on the go, regardless of engine rpm or ground speed. Clutching is not necessary. I think of it kinda like a torque converter in a modern automatic transmission. Its different, I know, but along the same lines. Just be aware that it may jerk the tractor at higher speeds (been thrown off the front of enough wagons behind a baler to know that!) IH had a history of these things going bad. Some Deere guys are Deere guys because they had to pay to fix one once. $$$$$ Some guys have theories about how to make them last longer. Its just one of those things. If the 300 has a good one now, I doubt you will ever use it enough anymore to ruin it. You'll find that alot of those tractors with bad torques got 5000 plus hours on 'em!
