Introduction
Hesston 1380 Row-Crop Tractor
The Hesston 1380 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1981 and 1984. Developed by Hesston as part of the Fiat group, this machine was designed to provide significant power for mid-to-large scale agricultural operations during the early 1980s.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the Fiat 8065-24 engine, a 5.5-liter, 6-cylinder liquid-cooled turbocharged diesel unit. With a compression ratio of 15.7:1, it delivers 135 horsepower, providing the necessary torque for heavy field work.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 1380 offers multiple transmission configurations to suit operational needs, including 12-speed and 24-speed options. It features a standard 4x2 2WD drivetrain, with an optional 4x4 MFWD configuration available to improve traction in challenging soil conditions. Steering is managed via a hydrostatic power system.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system operates at a pressure of 2450 psi (168.9 bar) with a pump flow capacity of 13.3 gpm (50.3 lpm). The tractor is equipped with three hydraulic valves and a Category II rear hitch, with an optional Category IIIN. The independent rear PTO supports dual speeds of 540/1000 rpm, allowing for flexible implement attachment.
Cab and Operator Environment
Standard equipment on the 1380 includes the Supercomfort cab, which features integrated air conditioning to maintain operator comfort during long work hours. The mechanical braking system uses differential hydraulic wet discs to ensure reliable stopping power.
Conclusion
The Hesston 1380 is a robust, high-horsepower row-crop tractor that balances mechanical reliability with operator comfort. Its versatile transmission and hydraulic capabilities make it a suitable choice for varied farming applications requiring consistent power and field maneuverability.
