Introduction

Allis Chalmers 7020 Row-Crop Tractor

Produced between 1978 and 1981, the Allis Chalmers 7020 is a two-wheel drive row-crop tractor manufactured in West Allis, Wisconsin, USA. It is designed to provide substantial power and versatile transmission options for large-scale agricultural operations.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by the Allis Chalmers 649I, a 6-cylinder liquid-cooled turbocharged diesel engine with intercooling. It features a 4.9-liter displacement and generates 146 hp at a rated speed of 2300 RPM. The engine utilizes a dry air cleaner with a pre-cleaner system to maintain performance in dusty field conditions.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The 7020 offers several partial power shift transmission configurations, including 12, 16, or 20 forward speeds and corresponding reverse gears. These systems utilize the Power Director setup, allowing for efficient speed adjustments via foot-operated power shift buttons. Final drives are equipped with inboard planetary gears for enhanced durability.

Hydraulics and PTO

The hydraulic system is a closed-center design providing a total flow of 45 gpm (170.3 lpm), with 22 gpm allocated to pump flow and 9.5 gpm for steering. It supports 2 or 3 valves for implement control. The rear independent PTO operates at both 540 and 1000 RPM, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of powered implements.

Operator Environment and Dimensions

The tractor is standard-fitted with the Acousta cab, which includes heating, with optional air-conditioning and audio equipment available. It features hydrostatic power steering and differential power wet disc brakes. The machine has a 106-inch wheelbase and is compatible with various tire configurations, including 18.4x38 or 24.5x32 rear options.

Conclusion

The Allis Chalmers 7020 is a robust row-crop tractor engineered for high-output agricultural tasks. Its combination of a high-flow hydraulic system, multiple partial power shift gear configurations, and a reliable 146 hp engine makes it a versatile tool for field work requiring consistent power and precise control.
