JimN,
On my 300U with the rear mounted forklift the TA works fine and I used it a lot when loading bulk boxes of sweet corn.
Your explanation of the TA basics operation in a previous post was well done and cleared some fog.
I have a question concerning rapid engagement going from low speed to high speed. For the purpose of the question let’s assume the tractor is moving on level ground with constant throttle setting.
When pulling the TA lever rearward into low speed I never have a problem doing it rapidly with any concern of possibly hurting the system. But when letting the TA lever go forward into a higher ground speed it always gives the feeling similar to pushing the clutch forward for initial movement on a JD A so I always move it slowly letting the tractor speed build up gradually. A few times my hand has slipped off the lever when moving it forward because, as you know, once released the lever moves forward on its own, and the tractor leaped forward with a jolt that did not feel good for the system. When going from low speed to high speed it seems that if I push the TA lever forward rapidly it would be the same as just letting my left foot slip off the main clutch pedal at start up from a stop to get going.
I’ve done it this way for about 10 years and the TA system has not seemed to change any.
Some where in this is a basic question about letting the TA lever move forward rapidly or should you play it like a clutch when going to a faster ground speed, I hope I didn’t muddle it up.

Today's Featured Article - The Cletrac General GG and the BF Avery A - A Bit of History - by Mike Ballash. This article is a summary of what I have gathered up from various sources on the Gletrac General GG and the B. F. Avery model A tractors. I am quite sure that most of it is accurate. The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
