Introduction
Lanz HR5: Standard-tread agricultural tractor
The Lanz HR5 is a standard-tread agricultural tractor produced between 1929 and 1935 in Mannheim, Germany. As a hallmark of early 20th-century agricultural engineering, it was designed to provide reliable power for farming operations during the interwar period.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine with a displacement of 10.3 liters (628.5 cubic inches). It generates 30 horsepower (22.4 kW) at a rated speed of 540 RPM. The engine utilizes an oil lubrication system, with an oil capacity of 8.5 liters, and features a bore and stroke of 225 x 260 mm.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The HR5 utilizes a mechanical transmission system consisting of three forward gears and one reverse gear, allowing for basic speed adjustments during field work. It is configured with two-wheel drive to transfer power to the ground via agricultural tires, measuring 900x150 at the front and 1150x300 at the rear.
Chassis and Operation
The tractor features manual steering and an open operator station, typical of the era, which provides the operator with unobstructed visibility. It has a wheelbase of 186 cm, an overall length of 320 cm, and a width of 194 cm. With a total weight of 2580 kg, the machine provides a stable platform for various agricultural tasks.
Conclusion
The Lanz HR5 represents a period of robust, simplified agricultural design. Its combination of a large-displacement single-cylinder engine and a heavy, durable chassis makes it a significant model for historians and collectors of vintage agricultural machinery.
