Introduction
Fiat 1380 Row-Crop Tractor
Produced by Fiat between 1979 and 1984, the Fiat 1380 is a row-crop tractor designed for heavy-duty agricultural operations. This model is characterized by its 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine and versatile drivetrain configurations, positioning it as a robust solution for large-scale farming requirements.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the Fiat 8065-24, a 5.5-liter, 6-cylinder liquid-cooled turbocharged diesel engine. It delivers 135 horsepower (100.7 kW) at a rated speed of 2400 RPM. The engine cooling system includes specific capacities for cab and ROPS configurations, with an oil capacity of 15.1 liters to ensure consistent lubrication under load.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 1380 offers multiple transmission layouts to suit different operating needs, all utilizing a 355.6 mm cerametallic dry disc clutch. Options include a standard 12-speed gearbox, a 24-speed version with creeper range, and a mechanical shuttle version providing 12 forward and 12 reverse speeds. The tractor is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations, featuring power steering and wet disc brakes for controlled operation.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system is an open-center type delivering a pump flow of 54.5 lpm (14.4 gpm), capable of supporting up to three valves. The rear hitch is a Category II system equipped with lower-link draft sensing, providing a significant lift capacity of 5397 kg (11900 lbs) for handling heavy implements.
Dimensions and Operator Environment
The machine is available with a standard cab, which can be equipped with optional air conditioning, or a four-post ROPS structure with a canopy. Operating weights vary based on the drivetrain, reaching approximately 6051 kg (13340 lbs) for 4WD models. The wheelbase and tread widths are adjustable to accommodate various row-crop spacings.
Conclusion
The Fiat 1380 is a high-capacity tractor engineered for demanding fieldwork. With its substantial lift capacity, multiple transmission options, and durable turbocharged engine, it remains a reliable choice for heavy-duty row-crop applications requiring sustained power and operational flexibility.
