Introduction
Mercedes-Benz Trac 1300 (Series 1100)
Produced between 1976 and 1991, the Mercedes-Benz Trac 1300 is a four-wheel-drive tractor designed for versatile agricultural operations. It is part of the Trac 1100 series, characterized by a focus on high-torque performance and mechanical durability.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Mercedes OM 352A, a 5.7-liter, 6-cylinder liquid-cooled turbocharged diesel engine. It generates 125 horsepower (93.2 kW) at a rated speed of 2600 RPM. The engine is tuned for agricultural pulling tasks, delivering a maximum torque of 289.1 lb-ft (392.0 Nm) at 1600 RPM to maintain consistent performance under load.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The drivetrain features a 4x4 all-wheel-drive system paired with a 310mm dry disc clutch. Operators can select between two transmission configurations: a 14-speed synchronized gearbox for standard field work or a 22-speed creeper transmission for applications requiring precise low-speed control.
Hydraulics and Hitch
Equipped with a hydraulic pump providing a flow rate of 15.9 gpm (60.2 lpm), the Trac 1300 is capable of operating various implements. The rear hitch is a category II/III system with a lift capacity of 11,023 lbs (5,000 kg). The independent rear PTO offers dual speeds of 540/1000 RPM, with options for 1.375-inch or 1.75-inch shafts to accommodate different implement requirements.
Dimensions and Operator Environment
The tractor features a wheelbase of 104.3 inches (264 cm) and a ground clearance of 19.7 inches (50 cm), facilitating navigation over uneven terrain. It is equipped with a standard cab, with optional air-conditioning available for operator comfort. The machine utilizes power steering and hydraulic drum brakes for improved handling and safety.
