Introduction

Allis Chalmers 190XT Row-Crop Tractor

The Allis Chalmers 190XT is a row-crop tractor produced between 1964 and 1971 in West Allis, Wisconsin. Designed for heavy field operations, this two-wheel-drive machine features a liquid-cooled engine and a specialized transmission system to manage its 104 horsepower output.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a 301 cubic-inch (4.9 L) 6-cylinder liquid-cooled engine. It operates at a rated speed of 2200 RPM. The engine utilizes a dry-type air cleaner and an electric starting system, with specific maintenance requirements including intake valve clearance set at 0.020 inches and exhaust valve clearance at 0.025 inches when hot.

Transmission and PTO

The 190XT utilizes a Power Director transmission, providing 8 forward and 2 reverse gears. It features a two-speed power shift that allows for on-the-move gear changes without clutching. The live continuous PTO is integrated into the Power Director system, allowing the operator to stop the tractor's forward motion while keeping the PTO engaged. It offers two speeds: 540 RPM at 1940 engine RPM and 1000 RPM at 2136 engine RPM.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system is an open-center design with a pump flow capacity of 12 gallons per minute (45.4 lpm) and a system pressure of 2000 psi. Steering is assisted by a dedicated hydraulic circuit with a flow of 12 gpm and 1500 psi pressure. The rear hitch is a Category II type, compatible with the Allis Snap-Coupler system for implement attachment.

Operator Environment and Dimensions

The tractor features an open operator station as standard, with factory-installed cabs available starting in 1965, which included optional heating and air conditioning. Maneuverability is supported by power steering and band-actuated disc brakes. With a wheelbase of 105 inches (266 cm) and a total length of 157.5 inches (400 cm), the machine is configured for row-crop stability.

Conclusion

The Allis Chalmers 190XT remains a notable machine for its era, offering a balance of power and hydraulic flexibility. Its combination of the Power Director transmission and live PTO makes it well-suited for varied agricultural tasks requiring frequent stopping or implement management.
