| | Effective power transmission is largely dependent on the fine tuning of the engine output, transmission and rear-axle ratio. In the Atego, three different 6-speed transmissions and a 9-speed direct transmission (with eight gears plus crawler gear) are available. With its hydraulic/pneumatic gearshift, changing gears is easy. Thanks to the good crawler and reverse gear ratio, precise manoeuvring is possible at low vehicle speeds. This transmission also has the advantage that the hydraulic oil lasts for the lifetime of the vehicle, thus reducing maintenance work.The tried-and-tested Telligent® automated gearshift is also available. |
