New Holland TM135 Row-Crop Tractor

The New Holland TM135 is a row-crop tractor manufactured in Basildon, England, between 2000 and 2002. Positioned within the TM series, this model is designed to provide reliable power and operational versatility for a range of agricultural tasks.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a 6-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a 456 cubic-inch (7.5 L) displacement. It delivers a rated power of 135 hp at 2200 engine RPM. The engine features a dual dry element air cleaner and operates within an efficient range of 1500 to 2200 RPM, with a compression ratio of 17.5:1.

Two transmission options were offered: the Range Command, featuring 18 forward and 6 reverse gears with push-button control, and the Dual Command, providing 24 forward and 12 reverse gears. Both systems utilize an electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch and power shift technology to facilitate smooth gear changes under load.

Hydraulics and PTO

The hydraulic system utilizes a closed-center load sensing (CCLS) design with a pump flow capacity of 28 gpm (106.0 lpm) at 2750 psi. The rear PTO is independent and offers multiple speed configurations, including 540, 540E, and 1000 RPM, controlled by an electro-hydraulic clutch for precise implement engagement.

Dimensions and Handling

The TM135 is available in two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive configurations, with specialized options like SuperSteer and Terraglide front axles for enhanced maneuverability and ride comfort. The tractor is equipped with power steering and hydraulic wet disc brakes as standard features to ensure control and safety during operation.
