Introduction

Hurlimann H-6160 Agricultural Tractor

The Hurlimann H-6160 is a heavy-duty agricultural tractor produced between 1979 and 1984. Designed for demanding field operations, this model occupies the high-power segment of the Hurlimann range from that era, prioritizing mechanical reliability and tractive force.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a displacement of 6.8 liters (417.38 cubic inches). It delivers a rated power of 160 hp at 2200 RPM. The bore and stroke dimensions are 110 x 120 mm, contributing to the engine's torque characteristics required for heavy draft work.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The H-6160 features a transmission configuration providing 12 forward and 4 reverse gears, allowing for a range of operating speeds. It is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations, complemented by hydrostatic power steering to assist in maneuvering the 6,500 kg machine.

Hydraulics and PTO

The hydraulic system is equipped with a pump flow of 17.2 gpm (65.1 lpm), supporting the rear lift capacity of 13,230 lbs (6,001 kg). The rear power take-off (PTO) offers dual-speed capabilities of 540 and 1000 RPM, ensuring compatibility with a wide array of implements.

Dimensions and Tires

The tractor measures 473 cm in length with a wheelbase of 286 cm and an overall height of 294 cm. It rides on agricultural tires, specifically 16.9-30 at the front and 20.8-38 at the rear, designed to optimize ground contact and traction under load.

Conclusion

The Hurlimann H-6160 serves as a robust solution for large-scale field work, offering a high power-to-weight ratio and substantial lifting capacity. It remains a notable example of late 1970s and early 1980s tractor engineering, suited for operations requiring consistent drawbar performance and versatile implement handling.
