T6 - TIER 4B

Efficient Auto Command™ Transmission offers advanced New Holland features

Designed and built by New Holland, the Auto Command™ transmission is available on the T6.145, T6.155, T6.165 and T6.175 models. This CVT transmission benefits from multiple direct drive points with 100% mechanical efficiency which have been precision engineered to ensure that they perfectly match the most frequently used speeds during cultivation and transport. Advanced double clutch control further enhances efficiency. Quite simply, it is the smoothest and most productive CVT around.

CommandGrip handle

• Force based movement enables the operator to change speed and direction. On the ICP there is a switch to alter the response of the speed change. Forward speed can also be controlled using the foot pedal. 
• Target speed adjustment – set a target speed to match your exact needs. Perfect when moving between fields or when crop yields have altered.
• Target speed selection – allows you to change between three target speeds.
• 4 driving modes to suit your driving style.
Auto Mode. Once the desired target speed is achieved, Auto Command will match the engine and transmission to maintain it.
Cruise Mode. Cruise Mode allows the operator to achieve a set target speed at the touch of a button, and to maintain the speed for economy and productivity.
Manual Mode. Allows the operator to manually set the required engine and forward speed, independently of each other.
PTO mode. As soon as the PTO is engaged, Auto Command will operate to achieve a constant engine speed.

Three adjustable target speeds for every need

Auto Command technology allows the operator to set a target speed of between 20m/hr right through to 50km/hr and regulate it to the nearest 0.01kph. No steps. No range changes.

Tailored Transmission settings

The multi-award winning Auto Command™ continuously variable transmission now features a three-stage acceleration and deceleration setting. The ‘soft’ setting is suitable for gentle direction changes, perfect during high speed transport or when working on slippery surfaces. The standard setting has been designed for normal field activities. The super-fast aggressive setting is ideal when near instantaneous direction changes are required.

Fast direction changes

Changing direction is simple with Auto Command. The operator can either move the CommandGrip™ handle, use the powershuttle switch on the CommandGrip™ handle or use the steering column mounted shuttle lever.

Balancing fuel economy and productivity

When working in Auto and Cruise modes, use the droop control dial, situated to the right of the operator, to limit upper engine speed used to achieve the desired forward speed. The result: you reach target speed at much lower engine revs, saving you fuel. In PTO mode, use droop control to regulate the acceptable reduction in PTO speed before forward speed is reduced.
