Keep up the great work

I don't know about great, but it's at least good work. 🤣🤣

You slam it forward is what I’ve always heard. Grew up on 56, 66 and 86’s. The only original thing JD ever had is the plow and the Soundguard, lol! All joking aside, Deere, CNH and Agco are buying or farming out with other companies.

That seems to be the majority consensus. That would be in line with how my Ford dual power shifts and White over/under. Both just engage when shifted. Run something long enough and you can feel how they want ran. I'll probably start shifting it more like everyone says but I'll still ease it in like I do when shifting up in higher gears under load.

I think that you are doing it the right way

If I'm wrong I'm the one that'll have to pay to fix 😂

It’s kinda in between the two demos you did….tractor history videos will be great….thanks!

They're coming. I figured they'd be good for a slow spell but may start mixing them in.

Steady movement is correct 👌

@@Mad_Farmer912 ok

I’ve never owned a 86 series but I’ve had and or drove 06 56 and 66 series and there’s no real “lock in” on the TA you just pull it back or push it forward. I would think easing the ta forward would be the correct way bc slamming it forward in my opinion would do more damage. The only thing I was told was never use the TA in high gears to slow down. You’ve been doing that for 20 years I doubt it’s gonna break at this point 😂. But no matter how someone uses something it’s gonna break at some point.

They're definitely not to be used as a brake. As long as the engagement is smooth I think either way is fine from what I understand is the sprag gear is the weak link. I feel the biggest risk is shifting up in the higher gears while pulling a load. That's when the most stress and torque would transfered to the smallest gear. It'll work till it don't. 😂😂

On Massey Ferguson in low multipower going down a grade it will freewheel in high it won't the transmission will keep it from freewheeling

Tractor manufactures pretty much copy each other's features in a similar way your preferences are what you grew up operating I grew up on John deer that's my preference

I grew up on a 520 and 60. I'm not much brand loyal but definitely era loyal 70s-90s.

If your not a big acreage farmer you don't need new equipment as long as it does the job that's all that matters

I agree with you. If its working fine no need to upgrade

I cant imagine its going to change anything to much, the lever on a 1066 you cant really snap it back up, but obviously you know thats not a 1066 soo

@Mad_Farmer912

Either way I'm sure they both function the same. I'm thinking the 66 maybe like my white and has detents to engage the lever positions and the 86 does have a spring assist in the workings.

You must be shifting it right or it would be broke
