Dear All,

On my serial number plate there is a CC stamped. According to my IT manual this means that my 560 has a 3rd speed heavy tillage gear. What is this? How do I tell if I have it?

Thanks, Fredd

Positive ways you can tell are to open it up and count the teeth on the gears or compare speeds between your 560 and another 560 that has the normal 3rd speed.

I had a 560 gasser that would pull a 4-14 plow easier than my 560 diesel but the diesel would out pull the gasser on PTO work. Made me really scratch my head until I looked at the serial numbers one day and found out about that option. The gasser had the heavy tillage gear in it, the diesel didn�t. Believe me it does make a big difference when doing heavy tillage.

The heavy tilage 3rd gear set has more gear reduction than the standard 3rd. Tractor ground speed in 3rd is slower with heavy tillage gears. As Hugh posted if the code is on tractor thats how its equiped, unless changed after leaving factory.

Fredd: Whatever is lettered on your serial plate, the tractor is, so equiped. It doesn't matter what the option is.

I expect there is also the possibility someone has done modifications like building one tractor out of two.
