336D PTO

SSRTOW · May 30, 2011

Heres pic of done tractor, before cleaning it up. Its got a ways to go to decent condition but it runs great now and goes pretty good too, although I have one complaint. There is a huge jump between 3/3 and 4/1, When mowing 3rd gear 3rd range is to slow and 4th gear 1st range is too fast? I miss my 330 already, I liked mowing with it. Anyway :thumbsup:

Nice looking tractor. I'm guessing you meant 1st gear 4th range is to fast.

hmm... maybe I have it all wrong?? Is the powershifter the range? or the floor shifter the range?

I'm most likely the one all messed up. I thought the 336d was a gear transmission.:ashamed:

oh, ok I still wonder which is which now.

ON MY 336D (1985 ABOUT) THE FLOOR SHIFT IS THE RANGE AND THE POWER SHIFT THE GEAR SELECTOR I MEAN THAT IS WHERE YOU FIND REVERSE.

Yes, that's right. On the YM336d the range is set on the floor and you do the shifting on the go with the powershift. On mine the highest range is only good for roading the tractor. There is quite a jump between 3rd range and 4th range.

Do you have the super low creeper gears with the lockout lever as part of the range selection on the floor? In Creeper range on the floor shift and with Low selected in the powershift that is just about the lowest geared tractor I've ever been on.

I dont think so, could you describe better where I might find that lever? I have not noticed anything but the 4x4 lever, I will take a look.

Edit: I just looked and I have only the 4x4 lever and the range selector

Let me throw this question out there: Is it possible to add Powershift to a non-Powershift Yanmar?? Sounds like that's what happened here, but only by completely swapping out the engine. Is there an easier route?

SSRTOW · Jun 3, 2011

All I did was swap out a bad engine for a good one, no other changes whatsoever. My 336d is as it came from the factory with maybe a few minor differences in the motor (internal differences) although externally (minus the throttle arm) it looks and matched up exactly.

I dont think one could go from no powershift to powershift without a whole new transmission, only way to do it right would be to buy a parts machine and take everything you needed. Bellhousing back, 336d trans looks totally defferent to the gear shift 330 tractor I took the engine from. Even the flywheel/clutch is different (although the drive clutch from the 330 is the same for the 336d)
