Eaton Fuller 9-Speed Models
Eaton Fuller 9-speed range-shift models are not synchronized. They have nine forward speeds and two reverse speeds. The shift lever controls five forward gears and one reverse gear in the transmission front section, and the range lever controls a LO and HI range in the two-speed auxiliary section. The first position in the front section is used only as a starting gear. The other four ratios are used once in LO range and once again in HI range. See Fig. for the shift patterns.
After shifting out of the first gear position, use the Roadranger® "repeat H" shift pattern. Select both LO range and HI range with the range lever (range knob). It is used once during the upshift sequence and once during the downshift sequence.
Always preselect the range shift. After preselection, the transmission will automatically make the synchronizer range shift as the shift lever passes through neutral.
Move the range lever up for HI range, down for LO range.

Eaton Fuller 10-Speed Models
Eaton Fuller 10-speed range-shift models are not synchronized. They have ten forward speeds and two reverse speeds. The shift lever controls five forward gears and one reverse gear in the transmission front section, and the range lever controls a LO and HI range in the two-speed auxiliary section. The five forward gears selected in LO range are used again in HI range to provide the 10 progressive forward gears. See Fig. for the shift patterns. See Table. for the shift progressions.

Once the highest shift lever position (fifth gear) is reached in LO range, the driver preselects the range shift lever for HI range. The range shift occurs automatically as the shift lever is moved from fifth gear position to the sixth gear position.

When downshifting, the driver preselects the range lever for LO range and the range shift occurs automatically during the shift lever movement to the next gear position.
Eaton Fuller Deep-Reduction Models
Eaton Fuller deep-reduction models are not synchronized. They have a five-speed front section and a two-speed auxiliary section which has an extra deep reduction gear. The LO gear in the front section is used only as a starting gear. The other four ratios are used once in LOW RANGE and once in HIGH RANGE giving eight highway ratios. LO-LO is selected by the DEEP REDUCTION lever on the dashboard. See Fig. for the shift pattern.
