They're unsynchronised progressive shift transmissions. Unlike the manual transmissions found in regular passenger cars, which are synchronised, you don't just simply take these out of gear and put them in the next gear up. To upshift, you would get up to your desired RPMs (usually between 1300 - 1500), then take it out of gear. You would then put it into the next gear up when the RPMs wind down to 700 or so.

Downshifting is a little more complicated. Here, you would wait until the RPMs went down to between 900 - 1000. You would then take it out of gear, tach the motor up to 1500 while out of gear, and drop it into the next gear down at 1500 RPMs.

For road tests, you'll be required to use the clutch with each shifting motion - this is called double clutching. It is possible to upshift and downshift without using the clutch at all, but, if you haven't gotten it down properly, it could end up causing serious damage to the transmission.

How do you shift a10 sppeed fuller trasmision?

Instead of progressive shifting, it's more like splitting the top side of a 13 speed... all the way to the left and down will be 1st/2nd... to go from first to second, you move the splitter forward, let off the accelerator (and you'll feel the transmission disengage), then tap on the accelerator to go into the next gear. When you're ready to shift into third, you pull the splitter back, then you shift like you would a progressive shift transmission.. you repeat this all the way to 10th.This is for an actual Super Ten transmission.. "Super 10" is often used as a misnomer for the 9 speed "top two" transmissions, where the overdrive gear is split to where you can run in the low hole or the big hole, like a 13 speed, except it makes the shifts between them automatically.

How do you shif a 9 speed?

To shift a 9-speed bike, use the right shifter to move up or down through the gears on the rear cassette. Click the shifter once to move up to a harder gear (faster pedaling), and click it the opposite way to shift down to an easier gear (slower, but easier pedaling). Make sure to pedal lightly while shifting to ensure smooth gear changes.


Can you convert an 10 speed into a super 10 speed?

No. Only the 10C transmissions are convertible, and that's to a 15 speed... the progressive shift patterns of a ten speed and Super 10 are much different.

Does a ten speed manual In a Freightliner semi tractor get better mileage than an auto shift?

If you take two trucks with matching motors, matching rear ends, and matching transmission ratios, the autoshift or fully automatic transmission is supposed to get better mileage of the two. The difference tends to be a bit negligible, however, and the manual shift transmission allows the driver a higher degree of control. One problem with the older autoshifts (the ones with the clutch) is that the synchroniser in the transmission often goes out due to bad clutch manipulation. This isn't a problem in the newer fully automatic transmissions (such as the Eaton Smart Shift, Meritor automatics, etc).

Most of their trucks will have a 9C (convertible to 13 speed) or ten speed transmission. A limited number of their trucks will have 13 speeds, and these are typically used for pulling Rocky Mountain Doubles or the over-dimension Costco trailers.
