| I love all of my Case tractors from the 2290 to the 2594, but other than not leaving the power shift in reverse when you are not in the cab for a while as in a stationary PTO job, the other thing is that you really need to be able to remember to manually shift the 1-2-3 (or six speed) power shift back to 1 before you push down on the "clutch pedal."
It is not actually a clutch, but a hydraulic inching pedal. If you are in a higher power shift gear and stomp on the pedal, it will force the gears back to 1 very quickly. Usually too quickly and can damage the power shift transmission.
I grew up running these and have no problem at all. I now have a hired hand who is a good and smart guy, but can't always remember to shift to 1 and just stomps on the pedal and it locks up the trans on the 2594 and causes the rear wheels to skid to a stop. Not good.
He will probably be banned from running them if he does not learn it in a quick hurry. He does fine with the newer Magnum where the pedal can be pushed down in any gear. | |
