Hi Everyone, new to site.
Hope all is well. Just wondering I bought a m9540 second hand before Christmas 2014 9000 hrs. When taking off in 1st or 2nd the tractor takes off in a shot like a jump. Is there any way to adjust this or is this what this model of tractor is like? I am new to them.
There is a shuttle gearbox on the tractor. See attached model.
Any advice or help grateful for it
Thanks

The WSM might have an adjustment for the clutch speed engagement if it's a hydraulic shuttle.

did we ever get an answer on this. Other than cable adjustment, there is no mention of engagement speed adjustment. I see on the shuttle valve there is one place that looks like there is an adjustment but unsure what it does. I have adjusted my cable and its perfect. but when you shift to either direction, it hits pretty hard. even at lower RPM.
