Description
Same Dorado 66 76 86 Power Shuttle Tractor Workshop Manual is the factory technical publication for the Dorado 66, Dorado 76 and Dorado 86 tractors equipped with the hydraulic Power Shuttle transmission. Produced for authorised dealer technicians and service centres, it provides the repair procedures, operating descriptions, diagnostic information, inspection data, tightening torques and adjustment specifications required for professional tractor servicing.
This is a substantial chassis, transmission, hydraulic and electrical workshop manual. It explains the correct methods for removing, dismantling, checking, adjusting and refitting the tractor assemblies covered by the publication. Technical illustrations, sectional drawings, hydraulic diagrams and electrical circuit diagrams support the written procedures, making the manual suitable for fault diagnosis as well as planned overhaul work.
The manual is particularly useful to agricultural engineers, independent tractor specialists, fleet workshops and experienced owners undertaking repairs beyond routine maintenance. Coverage includes the Power Shuttle and HML transmission units, gearbox, rear axle, rear PTO, hydraulic lift, steering, brakes, front axle, electronic controls, cab components and electrical system. Detailed internal engine overhaul instructions are not included; the publication refers technicians to the separate SAME 1000/3/4/6 engine workshop manual.

This workshop manual provides the principal factory information required to maintain and repair the tractor systems surrounding the engine. Its detailed treatment of the Power Shuttle, HML unit, gearbox, hydraulics, electronic diagnosis and wiring makes it especially important when investigating faults that cross mechanical, hydraulic and electronic systems.
Use the manual for the stated Power Shuttle models rather than mechanically shuttled Dorado tractors or later Dorado generations. Always identify the tractor model and installed optional equipment before beginning work, and refer to the separate engine publication whenever internal engine dismantling, measurement or overhaul is required.
