Introduction
Minneapolis-Moline G750 Row-Crop Tractor
The Minneapolis-Moline G750 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1969 and 1975. As part of the G850 series, this model was designed for versatile agricultural operations, offering both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Waukesha-Oliver 6-cylinder, liquid-cooled gasoline engine with a displacement of 265 cubic inches (4.3 liters). It features a bore and stroke of 3.75 by 4.00 inches and operates at a rated speed of 2200 RPM. The compression ratio is 8.5:1, and the engine utilizes a dry air cleaner system.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Two transmission options were available: a 6-speed helical gear transmission or the Hydraul-Shift transmission. The latter offers 18 forward and 6 reverse gears, incorporating a partial power shift that allows for three-speed shifting between under, direct, and over-drive ranges. Both systems utilize a 304.8 mm dry disc clutch.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system is an open-center type with a total capacity of 14 gallons (53.0 liters), supporting between 2 and 4 valves for implement operation. The independent rear power take-off (PTO) provides dual speeds of 540 and 1000 RPM, enhancing the tractor's compatibility with various implements.
Operator Station and Mechanics
The tractor is equipped with power steering and disc brakes for operational control. The standard configuration features an open operator station, though a cab with an integrated heater was available as an option. The rear hitch is a category II/I type, utilizing lower-link draft control for precise implement management.
Conclusion
The Minneapolis-Moline G750 is a durable, mid-range row-crop tractor suitable for a variety of field tasks. Its combination of multiple transmission choices and adaptable hydraulic configurations made it a practical utility machine during its production era.
