STARTING THE ENGINE AND MOVING IN
REVERSE
As with forward travel, there are two methods:
1. Preselect a Reverse Gear Before Moving
Start the engine with the control lever in neutral (the
digital display will show “N5”).
Move and release or hold the control lever to the right
and allow the transmission to select any gear
between 5th and 10th as shown in the display. Move
and release the lever to the left to select 4th, and 3rd.
NOTE: There are nine reverse gears, the lowest
shown as R2 in the digital display, the highest shown
as R10. They are numbered R2 to R10 since the
ground speeds correspond to the forward speeds F2
to F10.
After the desired gear is selected, depress the
neutral lock button and move the control lever
rearward. To increase speed, open the throttle
further and/or hold the control lever to the right to
select a higher gear. To decrease speed, close the
throttle and/or hold the control lever to the left to
select a lower gear.
NOTE: If the transmission has been preprogrammed
to select a different reverse from forward gear, the
neutral gear selected may change when reverse
gear is selected - see “Programming Reverse Gear”
later in this section.

2. Powershift Reverse Gear While Moving
With the engine running, depress the neutral lock
button and move the control lever rearward. The
digital display will show “R5”, provided the
transmission has not been preprogrammed (see
“Programming Reverse Gear” later in this section).
Move and release or hold the lever to the right and
allow the transmission to run through the gears until
the desired operating speed is achieved.
To further increase tractor speed, open the throttle
more and/or hold the control lever to the right to
select a higher gear. To decrease speed, close the
throttle and/or move the control lever to the left to
select a lower gear.
