Dumb Question: White 2-105 Shifter Pattern

[REPO]

So it seems like this 2-105 I purchased is supposed to have 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, plus the over-direct-under.
If this is correct, how do you do it? From what I "feel" with the shifter, there is just 3 forward and 1 reverse. Am I missing something?

What year/series is your 2-105?
We have a 1977 2-135 and it does have 6 forward and 2 reverse gears.

Are you new to Oliver and White then? It's a double H pattern. Let the shift center itself,then either push it forward toward the dash or pull it back toward you to get it in the other neutral.

Yes, I ve never owned one of these. I bought it from a guy who didn t know anything about it really.
I ll have to play around with it. There is a sticker on the dash showing the dua pattern, but I couldn t figure it out, lol.

I honestly don t know yet. I am waiting for the manuals I ordered to arrive, then I can start to figure this thing out.

Maybe these pictures will help. There is an upper & lower pattern. It's usually pretty easy to tell if you are in the upper pattern or
lower.

The 2-135 is not the same as a 2-105. The 2-105 pattern is in this old post by rrlund:

(quoted from post at 08:23:05 11/18/16) Hard to tell from this picture of one in the boneyard. The second one is mine with a cab. Along the edge it looks the same. Can't really tell from the first picture if it's wood grain in the center,but looks like it might be?

Thanks for the help everyone! I went out after work today and played around with it. And it does shift as you all explained. I ve not had a tractor with the double H type pattern before. But now that I understand it, it s quite simple.
