Introduction
LS MT235E Compact Utility Tractor
The LS MT235E is a compact utility tractor produced between 2019 and 2023, designed to serve a variety of agricultural and landscaping tasks. This model is engineered to provide a balance of maneuverability and operational reliability for small-to-medium scale applications.
Engine and Powertrain
The tractor is powered by an LS L3C19-D2 1.9-liter, 3-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine. It generates 35 horsepower (26.1 kW) at a rated speed of 2600 RPM. The engine utilizes a common rail direct injection system to optimize fuel efficiency and meet Tier IV emission standards.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Operators have the choice between two transmission configurations: a 12-speed synchro shuttle for manual control or a 3-range hydrostatic transmission for infinite speed adjustment without clutching. Both configurations feature four-wheel drive as standard, supported by power steering and wet disc brakes for enhanced control in varying terrain.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system provides a main pump flow of 8.2 gpm (31.0 lpm), with a total flow capacity of up to 13.7 gpm on the hydrostatic model. The rear 3-point hitch is a Category I type with position control, capable of lifting up to 1,808 lbs (820 kg) at the ends. The tractor is equipped with an independent 540 RPM rear PTO, and an optional 2000 RPM mid-mount PTO is available for specialized implements.
Dimensions and Ergonomics
The MT235E features a wheelbase of 69 inches (175 cm) and an overall width of 54 inches (137 cm), allowing for operation in confined spaces. The machine is equipped with a two-post folding Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) to ensure operator safety while allowing for vertical clearance adjustments.
Conclusion
The LS MT235E is a versatile utility platform suited for landowners and operators requiring a compact machine with the power to handle standard agricultural attachments. Its combination of hydrostatic or shuttle transmission options and robust hydraulic capacity makes it a practical choice for daily maintenance and property management.
