Same shift pattern as a 9 speed. YouTube has a great video straight from eaton fuller on it that would be better than me typing it.

What is the Shift pattern on a eaton 11609 transmission?

It's a nine speed transmission, so see the related link for a diagram. The diagram is actually of a 13 speed transmission - the difference with the nine speed is that it doesn't have the High/Low settings for the top side. The nine speed "H" pattern is the same basic pattern used for the 8LL, 13, and 18 speed transmissions.


Typical shift pattern for eight speed transmission?

Most "eight" speeds are actually nine speed transmissions, designated as eight speeds to distinguish them. For example, the 8LL, which has a gear reduction range for off-road usage, is still a nine speed at it's core. See the related link for a visual pattern of a nine speed transmission.


What is the shifter pattern on a 2009 kenworth t800?

Depends on what the transmission is. 8LL, 9 speed, 10 speed, 13 speed, 15 speed, and 18 speed transmissions are available.


View shift patterns for semi-truck?

The Eaton-Fuller and Rockwell websites should have them. Google images will be able to find images, as well.. you just put in "8LL shift diagram", "9 speed shift diagram", "10 speed shift diagram", etc.


Do 6x4 truck have auxiliary gear?

If you're talking about the transmission, one with a split range, twin countershaft transmission will have one (9 speed, 10 speed) or two (8LL, 13 speed, 15 speed, 18 speed) auxiliary gearboxes. Trucks with something like an Allison auto will not.


How do you down shift an 8 speed quad axle Mack dump truck transmission?

The best way to learn this is to have someone show you how. You're not going to learn this by just reading about it. A general rule of thumb is to downshift at 1000 RPMs, or 700 RPMs if you're dropping two gears. You would clutch, shift to neutral, hit the accelerator pedal, clutch, push it into the next lower gear at 1500 RPMs. This is a default taught at truck driving schools, and is not ideal for all engines and terrains. In soft dirt or soil, you'd downshift at a higher RPM, but you have to get accustomed to synchronizing your shifts yourself before you figure that part out... the manual transmissions (with the exception of the Volvo 14 speed) on Class 8 trucks in North America do not have a synchronizer gear, and the driver has to time their shifts in order to compensate for it. This is true whether the transmission is Eaton-Fuller, Rockwell, or a proprietary Mack transmission. If you're looking for the shift pattern, we'd need to know the make and model of the transmission. I'm willing to bet the transmission is most likely an Eaton 9 speed or 8LL, but the pattern depends on the model... a double overdrive transmission has a different shift pattern than a direct drive or single overdrive transmission, typically.


How do you shif a 9 speed?

If you already know how to shift an unsynchronized transmission, I'm guessing you learned on a 10 speed. The difference is... eliminate the first and sixth gear from a ten speed, and you have your nine speed shift pattern (as well the base shift pattern for the 8LL, 13 speed, and 18 speed). Schools teach you to take it out of gear at 1500 RPMs and drop it into the next gear at 1000 when upshifting, and they teach you to take it out of gear either at 1000 RPMs, take the engine up to 1500 RPMs, then drop it into the next lower gear when downshifting. Shifting at 1500 bogs down the engine... I upshift at 1900.


Can you give the shift pattern of a 12 speed eaton fuller?

I've never heard of an Eaton Fuller 12 speed, nor am I able to find any references to one via Google. I've driven Eaton Fuller 8LL, 9 speed, 10 speed, 13 speed, and 18 speed transmissions - could you be thinking of one of these? IIRC, Volvo marketed a proprietary 12 speed transmission, and Meritor offered a 12 speed automatic, but not Eaton Fuller.


What are gears 5-1 and 5-2 on a dump truck?

What sort of dump truck would be a question here. Typically transmissions for dump trucks (tandem axle and heavier) would include the Allison five, six, and seven speed automatic transmissions, and, as far as manual transmissions go, 8LL, 9, 10, 13, and 18 speed transmissions, like those found on road tractors (save for the 8LL, which is a bit rare to see on a road tractor). It sounds like you're referring to either a 5+2 transmission, which is basically a five speed with a rear end that has two rear end speeds, or possibly the Mack MaxiTorque transmission, which is essentially a five speed with a low gear setting.


How do you shift a sinchronist dumptruck transmission?

It's a little vague as to what your question is here. I'm a diesel tech and have over a decade of experience driving Class 8 trucks, and I've never heard of a "sinchronist" transmission. Either you're trying to say "synchronized", or you're trying to say "unsynchronized". If it's a split range, twin countershaft transmission, it's probably unsynchronized. This would include the Eaton-Fuller and Rockwell 8LL, 9 speed, 10 speed, 13 speed, 15 speed, 18 speed, and 21 speed transmission, as well as the Super 10. These don't have a synchronizing gear, and you have to account for the timing. For a beginner, you'd typically be taught to upshift at 1500 RPMs. You would depress the clutch (just enough to disengage the transmission, but not enough to engage the clutch brake), shift it into neutral, let off the clutch, depress the clutch again, and come into your next gear around 1000 rpms. Personally, I prefer to upshift at 1900 RPMs, but you'll get the feel for this over time, as you gain more experience with engine power bands and such. If you have a synchronized transmission (e.g., Eaton Fuller and Rockwell 6 and 7 speed transmissions, Volvo 14 speed transmission), DO NOT try to float these transmissions, ever! You will destroy the synchronizing gear if you do. They shift like a regular car transmission - get to your desired RPMs, push the clutch in enough to disengage the transmission, go up to your next gear, let off the clutch. As for shift patterns, I cannot say, as you didn't specify WHICH transmission you were referring to. Dump trucks come in all sizes from Class 3 trucks (e.g., Ford F350, Chevy/GMC 3500/Dodge Ram 3500) all the way up to Class 8 trucks (tandem trucks, tractor-trailers, etc.) and a wide range of transmissions can be found throughout, ranging from a regular five speed in an F350 to the unsynchronized MaxiTorque transmission to the Eaton Fuller 18 speed, and everything in-between. Have you considered a truck driving school? And, if you do have a CDL already, how did you ever pass this road test for the company (assuming you've been hired on) without knowing how to shift?


How many gears are there in a dump truck?

"Dump truck" (or "tipper") is a pretty ambiguous term. It's simply a truck with a dump body. You could take an older one ton pickup with a three speed transmission, and put a dump body on that. As far as the big ones go, it varies. For some odd reason, the Eaton SmartShift, Meritor, etc. nine through 18 speed speed automatic transmissions haven't been made available for most straight truck applications, so your automatic trucks will have five or six gears (the Allison six speed auto is popular for sitework trucks), whereas manual transmissions will range from eight to 18 gears. The 8LL tends to be more popular for sitework trucks which will go off-road.. the 8LL is basically a nine speed with low reduction gears on the low side. For a dump truck which is doing something exclusively on-road, like stock hauling, the owner may opt for something like a straight nine, ten, 13, or 18 speed, rather than the 8LL, as they're not likely to have any use for the low reduction gears that might be necessary for a sitework truck which would be prone to going off road.
