Introduction

LS MT226E Compact Utility Tractor

The LS MT226E is a compact utility tractor designed for agricultural and property maintenance applications. Produced by LS, this model represents a modern iteration in the sub-compact tractor segment, offering a balance of performance and maneuverability.

Engine Specifications

The tractor is powered by a Mitsubishi S3L2 liquid-cooled, three-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 1.3 liters. It features indirect fuel injection and delivers 24.6 gross horsepower at a rated engine speed of 2500 RPM. The engine utilizes an electric starter system with a 12-volt electrical architecture.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Operators can choose between two transmission configurations: a 12-speed synchro shuttle transmission for manual gear selection or a three-range hydrostatic transmission for infinite speed control. The drivetrain is equipped with four-wheel drive, power steering, and wet disc brakes to ensure traction and operational control in varied terrain conditions.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system utilizes an open-center design with a total flow capacity of 11.7 gpm (44.3 lpm). For implement management, the tractor is equipped with a Category I rear three-point hitch featuring position control, capable of lifting up to 1433 lbs (650 kg) at the ends. The rear PTO is independent and operates at a standard 540 RPM.

Dimensions and Operator Environment

The MT226E has a wheelbase of 66 inches (167 cm) and an overall length of 119 inches (302 cm). It is equipped with a two-post folding ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) to maintain a maximum height of 95 inches (241 cm), facilitating storage and transport. Standard agricultural tires are sized 7-14 for the front and 11.2-24 for the rear.

Conclusion

With its flexible transmission options and robust hydraulic capacity, the LS MT226E is suited for light agricultural tasks, landscaping, and small-scale property management requiring a compact and reliable machine.
