i bought a 4 row tobacco setter and due to the weight of the mounted tanks (300 gallon) and me not wanting to creat a new frame for another tractor just for a tryout- i might use the 8010 for a few hours- i need to go very slow-
 
maybe around 1 mph
 
can i creep along in 1st gear low about 1000 rpm and not hurt the tranny?

why would it hurt the tranny? its pressure lubed so if your running wide open or at an idle its being oiled, unlike a John Deere, so no damage is going to occour if your just crawling along, Id be more worried about the engine being carboned up from lack of labor , I only say that because an Allis Chalmers was made to work!!!!!!!!!

you have to get 1400 or better to have the pressure warning light for the tranny to go off
