Don't know anything about the hoe but ran a couple of 706 gassers when I was a kid. They shift hard, idle the tractor down and stop all ground movement when shifting ranges. While it may be possible to up-shift gears 1 to 4, this transmission is in no way a shift-on-the-go design. Sometimes you have to double clutch the tractor or select another range and move the tractor about one foot so the gears will mesh in the range you really want. Because of all of this, shift linkage adjustment is critical. IH built to this transmission design for many years but the 06 series was the first. They were able to smooth out the shifting just a little bit in later models. While these transmissions shift hard, they are very durable if not abused by the operator.
