If you are new th this tractor, you are describing normal vintage tractor operation. The gears in a car transmission are controlled with little braking devices that match up speeds of the sliders used to shift. In your transmission the gears move on shafts, sliding into mesh with other gears. They are free to smash into each other when doing so if they are not stopped, or matched in speed. THe shafts and gears are heavy. They spin redilly and continue to spin when the clutch is pushed in. The oil in the trans slows down the gears over a period of 5 to 10 seconds or longer when the clutch is pushed down.

Moving it too soon reduces the life of the gears. Jim
