New Holland clunky gear change

[gwspark]

Hi folks,

Have a range command 60 series, seems to be very clunky in the odd numbered gears, 3 and 5.

Been calibrated a few times but seems to make no difference.

Any input appreciated

check that there is pressure in the pressure ball thing on the side of the gear box on the right hand side it makes alot of differance. weve just fitted a new one

What did you fit yours on? I have mine off here today going to take it down to the dealer, they said they can test it.

nh 8340 ours could not be recharged i think all nh have the same cylinder

Got mine recharged today. Was totally empty. Driving a lot smoother now. God knows how long it's been empty.

We just changed one on our tm165 and it's helped the change quality but the 8560 needs one too . But I didn't think they could be recharged as it was the rubber diaphragm that had failed . There is a firm on eBay selling them for £300 inc vat and delivery , has anyone used them I think it's a Cheshire based firm , genuine NH are at least £400 plus

we paid £250 plus delivery from a firm in lancashire and it was genuine nh £50 cheaper than main dealer they are in fwi some weeks

Where is this part located. My 6080 range command is very clunky. Thanks

On a 60 series or tm it is located on the right hand side just behind the step. Bottle shaped and once you release the clamp on it, it just spins off.

Easiest was to tell if the bladder has popped is to take the cap off and open the Allen bolt. If you hear air coming out its OK and will just need charging, if oil comes out you need a new one. When they have been run flat for a long time the bladders get damaged.

What was outcome of this? Clutch packs went on our t7050 yesterday for medium range gears 7-12 as predicted.

How many hours?

I got my accumulator bottle refilled. Has made a big difference to her. Surprisingly the accumulator held the gas ok.

How many hours?

Hi
I have a T7.200 power command gearbox which is also suffering from clunky changes. Have also changed the accumulator but no better.
It has a terrible intermittent down change from 19 to 18 which feels like the gearbox is about to drop out. Other changes up and down can be smooth then rough.
Local dealer has looked but 'have never heard of this before.....'
Calibration makes no difference.
Any advice or help will be greatly appreciated!! Thanks
