Made by the Caterpillar Corporation SPLIT SECOND SHIFTS promotes their new D8 tractor bulldozer and the legendary Powershift transmission. The single-lever Powershift allowed the operator to shift quickly, with more power per load being delivered and resulting in more efficiency. The Powershift gives the power of direct drive and torque converter tractors through the planetary gear, as seen through animation at the 3:00 mark. At 7:30 the film shows the Powershift transmission up close, with the torque converter seen at 7:47. At 8:15, the film shows some of the Caterpillar manufacturing facilities including their legendary quality control operations and the Powershift assembly line at 9:10.
