Introduction
New Holland TJ280 Tractor
The New Holland TJ280 is a heavy-duty four-wheel drive tractor produced between 2006 and 2007 at the manufacturing facility in Fargo, North Dakota, USA. Designed for large-scale agricultural operations, this machine focuses on high traction capabilities and robust performance.
Engine and Power
The tractor is powered by an 8.3-liter (506.5 ci) CNH 6-cylinder, 24-valve turbocharged and aftercooled diesel engine. It generates a rated power of 280 hp (208.8 kW) at 2000 RPM, with a maximum power output of 308 hp (229.7 kW). The engine produces a substantial torque of 1003 lb-ft (1360.1 Nm) at 1400 RPM, providing the necessary pulling force for heavy field work.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The TJ280 offers two transmission configurations to suit operational requirements: a 16-speed full power shift transmission or a 24-speed full synchro shift transmission. The drivetrain features permanent four-wheel drive, complemented by hydrostatic power steering and integral hydraulic wet disc brakes for reliable control.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system utilizes a closed-center load-sensing (CCLS) design, delivering a standard pump flow of 33 gpm (124.9 lpm) with a total flow of 40 gpm (151.4 lpm) at 2000 psi. An optional MegaFlow system can increase hydraulic capacity to 90 gpm (340.7 lpm). The rear hitch is capable of lifting 15,669 lbs (7107 kg) at 24 inches behind the lift point.
Dimensions and Operator Environment
The machine features a wheelbase of 139 inches (353 cm) and reaches a total length of 276 inches (701 cm). It is equipped with a standard cab that includes heating and air conditioning to maintain operator comfort. The tractor has a maximum operating weight of 39,600 lbs (17962 kg) and is fitted with 20.8R42 tires for both front and rear axles.
Conclusion
The New Holland TJ280 is engineered for demanding traction tasks and heavy-duty field applications. Its combination of high-torque displacement, versatile transmission options, and substantial hydraulic capacity makes it a suitable choice for large-scale farming operations requiring consistent power and durability.
