Introduction
Deutz-Allis 8050 Row-Crop Tractor
The Deutz-Allis 8050 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1985 and 1988 in West Allis, Wisconsin, USA. Designed for heavy-duty agricultural operations, it features a 169 hp engine and was available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the Allis-Chalmers 670I, a 6-cylinder, turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine. With a displacement of 426 cubic inches (7.0 L) and a compression ratio of 15.5:1, it operates at a rated speed of 2300 RPM. The engine cooling system has a capacity of 30.3 liters, and the lubrication system requires between 18.0 and 19.9 liters of oil depending on the filter configuration.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 8050 offers two primary transmission options: a 20-speed partial power shift (Power Director) and a 12-speed full power shift. The 20-speed unit provides five gears in two ranges with a two-speed power shift, while the 12-speed unit utilizes six power shift gears in two ranges. Both systems are designed to offer versatility in field speeds. It includes an electro-hydraulic rear differential lock and hydraulic wet disc brakes for enhanced traction and stopping power.
Hydraulics and Hitch
Equipped with a closed-center, load-sensitive hydraulic system, the tractor delivers a total flow of 45 gpm (170.3 lpm). This system supports steering functions with a dedicated 9.5 gpm flow and provides power for external implements via two or three hydraulic valves. The rear hitch is a category III/II type, capable of a lift capacity of 6680 lbs (3030 kg) at 24 inches behind the hitch point.
Operator Environment and Dimensions
The tractor features the Acousta cab as standard equipment, which includes integrated heating and air conditioning to maintain operator comfort. In terms of dimensions, the 2WD model has a wheelbase of 106 inches, while the 4WD version has a 96-inch wheelbase. The vehicle length is 187 inches, with a total width of 95.5 inches.
