Your trucks and drivers work
hard in tough conditions, day

in, day out. Their performance

and productivity rise to a

whole new level when you spec

Allison Rugged Duty Series

fully automatic transmissions.

Working harder and smarter

fully automatic transmissions fit operating requirements
better than other transmissions because they’ve been
engineered specifically for the way you work. They utilize
Allison’s patented Continuous Power Technology™ to deliver
smooth, seamless, full-power shifts, superior acceleration and
startability. And Allison Automatics use engine power more
efficiently, which equates to less fuel consumed.

On pavement, full-power shifts mean

shorter trip times. In traffic, there’s no
relentless shifting, as with manuals. No
unpredictable and delayed shifting, as
with automated manuals. And neither
can compare to Allison’s vehicle control
on a grade.

Allison Transmission has built a reputation on our
ability to build transmissions that last. That is why
Allison Automatics are the preferred choice for
on-/off-highway, rugged duty applications.

Off-road, Allison Automatics provide

smooth, effortless shifting and precise
traction control. While manuals and
automated manuals cause the drive
wheels to hop and do damage to the
drivetrain, Allison Automatics achieve
just the right amount of traction for load
and ground conditions — dirt, mud, sand
or gravel. They can take whatever you
throw at them and still deliver.

Comprehensive coverage

automatic transmission models offer comprehensive
coverage with 100% parts and labor. Coverage may
vary by model and by application. Contact your
Allison representative for details.

ELECTRONIC CONTROLS

To get the most out of every drop of fuel, Allison 5th Generation Electronic Controls offer an enhanced
array of smart controls designed to increase fuel economy and fuel efficiency for the specific needs of
any rugged duty application. These include Load-Based Shift Scheduling, Reduced Engine Load at Stop,
Shift Energy Management, Vehicle Acceleration Control and the new Enhanced Converter Load Release.

Allison 5th Generation Electronic Controls provide unprecedented flexibility when it comes to specifying

Calibrated to the vehicle’s particular operating requirements, Allison’s advanced

prognostics monitor various operating parameters to determine and alert when service

is due. This eliminates unnecessary oil and filter changes and provides maximum

Oil Life

Monitor

Based on the vehicle’s duty cycle,

this feature determines fluid life

and alerts you when a fluid change

is required. Not only does it help

you get maximum oil life while

providing the maximum protection

for the transmission, the Oil Life

Monitor also saves you money by

preventing unnecessary

fluid changes.

Filter Life

Monitor

This provides an alert when

the transmission’s fluid
filter(s) need to be replaced.
It helps extend filter change

intervals to reduce routine

maintenance downtime and

saves you money in the long

run, all the while providing

maximum protection for

the transmission.

Transmission Health

This prognostic feature determines

the condition of the transmission’s

clutches and alerts you when clutch

maintenance is required. It helps

avoid costly repairs and downtime

by taking the guesswork out of

scheduling routine transmission

maintenance. And, it ensures your

transmission is operating at its

maximum performance level.

Additional electronic control packages are available. See your local Allison representative for the ones that fit your particular application.
