Introduction

Cockshutt 2150 Row-Crop Tractor

The Cockshutt 2150 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1968 and 1969 in Charles City, Iowa, USA. As part of the 2050 series, this machine was engineered for heavy-duty agricultural operations, delivering 145 hp.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by an Oliver-Hercules 6-cylinder, liquid-cooled, turbocharged diesel engine with a displacement of 478 cubic inches (7.8 liters). It operates at a rated speed of 2400 RPM with a compression ratio of 18.0:1. The engine cooling system has a capacity of 28 quarts (26.5 liters), while the oil capacity is 19 quarts (18.0 liters).

Transmission and Drivetrain

Two transmission options were available: a 6-speed unsynchronized gear transmission or the Hydraul-Shift partial powershift transmission, which provides 18 forward and 6 reverse gears. The Hydraul-Shift system allows for clutchless, on-the-move shifting for both under-drive and over-drive ranges. Both configurations utilize a 355.6mm cerametallic disc clutch. The tractor was offered in either two-wheel or four-wheel drive variants.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system features an open-center design with a pump flow of 9 gpm (34.1 lpm) and a system pressure of 2050 psi (141.3 bar). It supports 2 to 4 valves for implement operation. The rear Category III hitch is equipped with position and draft control, capable of lifting 6000 lbs (2721 kg) at 24 inches behind the lift point.

Dimensions and Operator Environment

The 2150 has a wheelbase of 97.7 inches (248 cm) and provides 18.9 inches (48 cm) of ground clearance. The operating weight is 12,990 lbs (5892 kg), which can be increased to a ballasted weight of 21,125 lbs (9582 kg). The tractor features an open operator station with optional air-conditioned cab availability, power steering, and independent dry disc brakes.

Conclusion

The Cockshutt 2150 is a robust, high-horsepower row-crop tractor designed for demanding field work. Its combination of a powerful 6-cylinder engine and the advanced Hydraul-Shift transmission makes it suitable for large-scale farming applications requiring significant draft capacity and operational flexibility.
