Introduction
Eagle Manufacturing H 16-30 Standard-tread Tractor
The Eagle Manufacturing H 16-30 is a standard-tread agricultural tractor manufactured in Appleton, Wisconsin, USA, between 1922 and 1930. Designed for heavy-duty field work during the early 20th century, this machine reflects the engineering standards of its era.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 2-cylinder, 4-valve, liquid-cooled engine with a displacement of 804 cubic inches (13.2 liters). It utilizes a Schebler carburetor for fuel delivery, typically running on kerosene. The engine operates at a rated speed of 450 RPM, producing a claimed belt power of 30 hp and a drawbar power of 16 hp. It is started manually using a hand-crank mechanism.
