I disagree (no flame) with your TA analysis. The use of the TA should be considered a real range selector. When in TA reduction, the one way clutch is not dragging (wearing from overrunning continuously) there are times when the tractor can freewheel down hill (usually when unloaded by draft equipment) the ground speed should never be allowed to be faster than that, 1 through 5 would go in direct. The issue is overspeeding the TA module possibly causing destruction. The TA one way clutch is continually wearing while in direct, due to the fact that it is continuously overrunning in direct. Use it as needed for pulling. Running all day in 3rd gear with the TA back is just fine. I have a 350U with the original TA and original main clutch with 9000 hours and one engine rebuild. It is still completely operational. Adjustment is needed every 2 years or so. Shift from TA direct to reduction as quickly as you can move the lever. Put it into direct just as quickly. The hydraulic TA in the big series is only different in that it will not freewheel in TA reduction. The hydraulic TA is not to be used as a deceleration brake, the Hydraulic locking clutch is not intended to survive that kind of thrashing. The pulling power is in reality controlled by a one way clutch. Again this is not intended to irritate. Jim

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
