Introduction
Allis-Chalmers 175 Row-Crop Tractor
The Allis-Chalmers 175 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1970 and 1980. Part of a lineage including the 170 and 6060 series, this model was manufactured in both gasoline and diesel configurations, with a total production run of 6,494 units.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 226 cubic-inch (3.7-liter) four-cylinder engine. The unit features a liquid-cooling system, a dry air cleaner, and an 8.2:1 compression ratio, operating at a rated speed of 1800 RPM. It delivers approximately 69 horsepower, providing sufficient output for standard row-crop agricultural operations.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 175 utilizes the Allis-Chalmers Power Director transmission. This partial power shift system offers 8 forward gears and 2 reverse gears. Power is delivered through a two-wheel drive configuration, managed by hydrostatic power steering and differential mechanical band and disc brakes for operational control.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system features a 7-gallon (26.5-liter) capacity and is equipped with 3 valves to support various implements. The rear power take-off (PTO) is a live-type system operating at a standard 540 RPM, suitable for driving a wide range of secondary agricultural equipment.
Dimensions and Chassis
With a wheelbase of 93 inches (236 cm) and a total operating weight of 7,830 lbs (3,551 kg), the tractor is designed for stability. The front axle provides 21.5 inches of clearance, while the drawbar offers 16 inches of clearance. The operator station is an open-platform design, with a two-post rollover protective structure (ROPS) and canopy available as an option.
Conclusion
The Allis-Chalmers 175 is a balanced row-crop tractor suited for mid-sized agricultural tasks. Its combination of a 69-horsepower engine, versatile transmission, and standard hydraulic capabilities makes it a practical machine for general field work and utility duties.
