Operating JD 3720 Tractor PowrReverser Transmission

The range shift lever provides three speed ranges. The gear shift lever provides four gear positions. The reverser lever controls travel direction.

Use all three levers in different combinations to achieve twelve forward and twelve reverse speeds.

Machine motion must stop and the clutch pedal must be depressed before changing ranges. Gears may be changed while machine is in motion if clutch pedal is completely depressed.

Choose a speed range to match work application:

- A – Low speed/high power operations such as tilling hard soil, mowing high grass or positioning backhoe.

- B – Operations including moderate tilling, hauling, and grass mowing.

- C – High speed operations such as transport and light mowing.

Choose a gear that matches the immediate power/speed requirements:

- 1st Gear – High power, low speed operations.

- 2nd Gear – Medium power, moderate speed operations.

- 3rd Gear – Low power, moderate speed operations.

- 4th Gear – Low power, high speed operations.

Sophisticated hydraulic system. Instead of one single hydraulic pump that divides flow between steering and a hydraulic implement such as a loader, these units split the functions ensuring the steering always gets the oil it needs and the implement does, too.

No “robbing” of hydraulic power, that could threaten overall performance. High oil flow enabling quick operations – high pressure for high forces.

- Tilt steering wheel and seat adjust for your comfort.

- An exclusive digital Performance Tracking System instantly tells you the status of the vital systems on your tractor.

- Standard loader joystick stays close at hand and clear of your knee. Plus three hydraulic control valves are standard.

- Digital speedometer is perfect for precision tasks like spraying.

- Direct injection John Deere 3720 Tractor diesel engines are quick starting and offer deep reserves of torque for pulling heavy loads.

- Quick-Park loaders can be attached and detached in minutes – without tools.

- Standard 4WD digs in when doing loader work or heavy ground work. Greater durability with strong front and rear axles.
