Different configurations are available for the transmission which include mechanical Hi-Lo, with the possibility of hydraulic reverse power shuttle. Available gears include 12+12 and 16+16 with a creeper mode.

Maximum reliability and ease of use combine perfectly with ease of maintenance. It is possible to have immediate access to all the elements of the engine which allows the operator to intervene for periodic and extraordinary maintenance.
