MAGNUM means more.
More performance from
18-speed full powershift
transmissions.
In MAGNUM tractors, more speed
choices mean more performance and
productivity. The full powershift trans
missions give you 18 standard speeds,
ranging from 1.8 to 19 mph, with seven
in the 3 to 8 mph range, where you
work most. And if that’s not enough,
you can add a powershift creeper
transmission with six more speeds in
the .5 to 2.1 mph range.
And powershifting is almost effortless
The in-line sequence is natural and
simple. Speed changes are smooth,
selections are precise. You can start
in any gear, shift up, down or into
reverse—all without clutching.
And what do farmers say about the
powershift transmissions in MAGNUM
tractors? Of several hundred who
recently tested the tractors on their
own farms, 85.7% rated the transmis
sion better than their current tractor in
ease of speed selection, smooth shift
ing and proper speeds for the job.
MAGNUM performance. Assured by
advanced transmissions to match the
most advanced tractors. More proof
that MAGNUM means more! See us
today for a demonstration on
your farm.
