Introduction
Landini 8560F Orchard and Vineyard Tractor
The Landini 8560F is a specialized orchard and vineyard tractor produced between 1988 and 1995. Designed for narrow-row operations, it combines compact dimensions with the power required for intensive agricultural tasks.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Perkins 4.248 diesel engine, a 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled unit with a displacement of 4.1 liters. This engine delivers 80 hp (59.7 kW), providing consistent torque for various implements. The combustion process is supported by a dry-type air cleaner system.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 8560F offers two transmission configurations: a standard 12-speed syncromesh gearbox with 12 forward and 4 reverse gears, or an optional 24-speed creeper transmission. Both systems utilize a 279.4 mm mechanical dry disc clutch. The tractor is available in either two-wheel or four-wheel drive variants and features power steering to improve maneuverability in confined spaces.
Hydraulics and Implements
Equipped with a Category II rear hitch, the tractor provides a lifting capacity of 5,732 lbs (2,600 kg). The independent rear PTO supports dual speeds of 540 and 750 rpm, allowing for flexible operation of powered implements.
Electrical and Operator Station
The electrical system operates on 12 volts, featuring a Lucas A115 charging system with a 45-amp output. Operator safety is provided by a two-post mid-mount Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS).
Conclusion
The Landini 8560F is a reliable, purpose-built machine optimized for orchard and vineyard maintenance. Its combination of a high-torque Perkins engine, multiple transmission options, and substantial lift capacity makes it a practical choice for farmers working in specialized, high-density crop environments.
