Introduction
Deutz-Allis 8070 Row-Crop Tractor
The Deutz-Allis 8070 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1985 and 1988 at the West Allis, Wisconsin, facility in the United States. Designed for heavy-duty agricultural operations, this model offers a power output of 189 hp and was available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by an Allis Chalmers 670I engine, a 6-cylinder, 7.0-liter turbocharged and intercooled diesel unit. It features a liquid-cooling system and operates at a rated speed of 2400 RPM. The engine design incorporates a 15.5:1 compression ratio and utilizes a dry air cleaner to maintain performance in field conditions.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Two transmission options were offered for the 8070. The Allis-Chalmers Power Director transmission provides 20 forward and 4 reverse speeds through a partial power shift system. Alternatively, the Allis-Chalmers Power Shift transmission provides 12 forward and 2 reverse speeds, utilizing a clutch for range selection. Both configurations include an electro-hydraulic rear differential lock to improve traction.
Hydraulics and PTO
The 8070 is equipped with a closed-center, load-sensitive hydraulic system that delivers a total flow of 45 gpm. It includes two or three valves for implement control, with separate flows allocated for steering and transmission requirements. The rear power take-off (PTO) is independent and operates at 1000 RPM.
Operator Environment and Dimensions
The tractor features the Acousta cab as standard equipment, providing both heating and air conditioning for operator comfort. Physically, the machine sits on a 106-inch wheelbase with an overall length of 187 inches. It is designed to handle rear-mounted implements with a Category III/II three-point hitch capable of lifting 8,200 lbs at 24 inches behind the lift point.
Conclusion
The Deutz-Allis 8070 serves as a robust solution for large-scale row-crop farming, combining significant hydraulic capacity with a flexible transmission lineup. Its standard climate-controlled cab and heavy-duty drivetrain make it suitable for prolonged field operations requiring consistent power and implement control.
