The tractor is powered by a liquid-cooled Isuzu 4JBI-T turbocharged diesel engine. This 2.8-liter, 4-cylinder powerplant produces 60 horsepower (44.7 kW) at a rated speed of 2500 RPM. The engine utilizes a direct fuel injection system, glow plugs for cold starting, and a dual dry element air cleaner to ensure reliable operation in various environmental conditions.

Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system utilizes an open-center design with a pump flow capacity of 8.2 gpm (31.0 lpm) and a system pressure of 2417 psi (166.7 bar). The rear hitch is a Category I type, featuring position, draft, and response control. It provides a lift capacity of 4045 lbs (1834 kg) at 24 inches behind the hitch point, and 4850 lbs (2199 kg) at the link ends.
Dimensions and Operator Environment
The tractor features a wheelbase of 79.9 inches and a ground clearance of 13 inches, contributing to its stability on uneven terrain. Operator safety is provided by a two-post fixed ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure).
