Transmission notes
6-speed: Standard gear transmission for early models. Three gears, plus reverse, with high and low ranges.
8-speed: Later standard transmission, replacing the 6-speed.
Multi-Power: Multi-Power provides a clutchless power shift from high (direct drive) to a lower speed, providing additional torque. Three gears, plus reverse, in high and low ranges plus the high/low Multi-Power. Multi-Power High should be used on hills as the low speed does not allow for engine braking.
