Abstract
Methods and systems for a hydromechanical transmission are provided. In one example, the method includes responsive to rotation of a portion of a mechanical assembly induced by cranking of an engine, blocking an output shaft of the hydromechanical transmission via joint engagement of a forward drive clutch and a reverse drive clutch. The method further includes pressurizing a hydrostatic assembly while the forward drive clutch and the reverse drive clutch remain jointly engaged, where the mechanical assembly is coupled in parallel with the hydrostatic assembly.
