15. A method for controlling engagement of a clutch in a work machine, comprising:
-
applying a first set of actuation pressures to the clutch for a majority of clutch engagement; and
applying a second set of actuation pressures to the clutch after the first set, the second set of clutch actuation pressures being less than a maximum clutch actuation pressure of the first set. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
