John Deere 5403 - Manual (Page 8)

Choose the transmission that’s
right for you. The 5003 Series
Tractors are now available in 2-
wheel drive and 4-wheel drive
models. Available 4-wheel drive
gives you increased drawbar pull
and improved traction when
operating in slippery conditions.
You’ll get more power to the
ground for applications
that demand more from your
tractor.
Two-wheel-drive models feature the SyncReverser transmission
with 9 forward and 3 reverse speeds, ideal for loader applications and
various other tasks that require frequent directional changes.
With synchronized, in-line, shuttle shift capability, you can
easily switch directions without having to completely stop the
tractor. Forward shifting on-the-go between speeds and ranges is not
synchronized. Four-wheel-drive models have a 9F/3R SyncShuttle ™ transmission, perfect
when you need a durable basic transmission for a mix of field work and light
loader work. You can easily select speeds or switch directions without having
to completely stop the tractor with synchronized, in-line, shuttle shift capability.
Synchronized shifts between speeds for on-the-go shifting with use of the clutch.
Shifts between ranges are not synchronized.
