Introduction
Minneapolis-Moline G950 Agricultural Tractor
The Minneapolis-Moline G950 is a standard-tread tractor produced between 1969 and 1971. Part of the manufacturer's heavy-duty tractor line, it was designed to provide reliable power for large-scale agricultural operations.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a liquid-cooled Minneapolis-Moline 425C-6 gasoline engine. This 6-cylinder unit features a displacement of 425.5 cubic inches (7.0 liters) and a bore/stroke of 4.25 x 5.00 inches. With a rated speed of 1800 RPM, it delivers a power output of 107 hp, suitable for heavy traction and field work.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The G950 utilizes the Minneapolis-Moline Ampli-Torc transmission system, available in two configurations: a 10-speed version with two-speed power shift or a 15-speed version with three-speed power shift. This allows for precise speed adjustment under load. Power is transferred to the rear wheels via a 355.6mm dry disc clutch.
Hydraulics and PTO
The machine is equipped with an independent rear PTO offering both 540 and 1000 RPM speeds, facilitating the operation of various implements. The hydraulic system is of the closed-center type, providing consistent pressure for external equipment and rear hitch functions, which support category III/II attachments.
Dimensions and Handling
Built on a 104.5-inch wheelbase, the G950 measures 164.5 inches in total length. It features power steering for enhanced maneuverability and disc brakes for reliable stopping power. The tractor weighs approximately 10,500 lbs, providing the necessary ballast for field traction, with adjustable tread widths to accommodate different row-crop requirements.
Conclusion
The Minneapolis-Moline G950 is a robust, conventional two-wheel-drive tractor engineered for demanding agricultural tasks. Its combination of high-displacement engine power and versatile power-shift transmission options makes it a capable machine for standard-tread field applications.
