John Deere Syncro-Range: Four shift stations with two gears each, plus reverse gear in the first two shift stations. Tractor must be stopped, and clutch used, to shift between stations. Once in a shift station the tractor may be shifted on the move, using the clutch, between the gears in that station.

John Deere Quad-Range: Four gears (1-4) in four ranges (A-D). Power shift between gears 1-2 and 3-4 in each range with a synchronized shift (using clutch) between 2-3. Tractor must be stopped to shift range.

Syncro-Range Creeper: Optional creeper range adds additional speeds to the first five gears of the Syncro-Range transmission. An interlock prevents shifting into gears 6 through 8 while the creeper is engaged.
