As the others have said, the 4 added speeds are all between the tractors normal 4th gear and 5th. (all faster than 4th and slower than 5th. No help. Pulling trees less than 4 inches in diameter can be done, especially brush and weed trees. A steel "A" frame made to pull up on the tree and horizontal on the tractor can help dramatically. Do not use tow straps, or cable. They stretch and snap killing operators. Do not jerk out trees (ever). Cut off tops before pulling to assure they will not smack the operator off the tractor. Do not attach any chain to any point higher than the original drawbar. Hooking to the end of the swinging drawbar is best.(extending the swinging drawbar 2 feet with a pipe pushed over the drawbar with a hole for a pin, will extend the drawbar such that the tractor will have far less tendency to flip over backwards). The best is not to pull anything but brush, carefully. Jim
