JCB 125-65: Agricultural Tractor
The JCB 125-65 is a four-wheel drive agricultural tractor manufactured in Rocester, England, between 1992 and 1993. Designed for versatility and performance, this model serves as a mid-range power unit suitable for a variety of field operations and heavy-duty tasks.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the Perkins 1000-6, a 6.0-liter, six-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine. It utilizes a direct injection fuel system and produces 121 horsepower (90.2 kW). With a peak torque of 420.4 Nm reached at 1400 RPM, the engine is configured to provide consistent pulling power under load.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Equipped with a synchromesh transmission, the machine offers 18 forward and 6 reverse gears, arranged in three ranges. The driveline features a 4x4 configuration with electro-hydraulic differential locks on both the front and rear axles to improve traction in varying soil conditions. A 350mm dry disc clutch manages power delivery.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system provides a pump flow of 15.9 gpm (60.2 lpm) at a pressure of 3045 psi (210.0 bar). The rear hitch is a Category IIIN/III type, featuring position and electronic draft control, capable of lifting up to 12122 lbs (5498 kg). An optional front hitch is available, offering a lift capacity of 6174 lbs (2800 kg).
Operator Environment
The tractor includes a factory-standard cab equipped with air conditioning to maintain operator comfort during extended work periods. Steering is power-assisted, and the braking system utilizes pneumo-hydraulic dry discs for controlled stopping performance.
Conclusion
The JCB 125-65 is a robust, mechanically-oriented tractor suited for general farming operations requiring significant lift capacity and multi-speed transmission flexibility. Its 4WD capability and standard cabin comfort make it a reliable choice for professional agricultural work.
