The Oliver 1365 is a utility tractor produced between 1971 and 1975. Engineered by Fiat and distributed by Oliver, this model shares its foundational design with the Fiat 600 and 640 series, serving as a versatile machine for general agricultural operations.
Engine and Powertrain
The tractor is powered by a 3.5-liter, 4-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine. It features a bore and stroke of 100 x 110 mm and a compression ratio of 17:1. The engine provides 61 horsepower at a rated speed of 2400 RPM. A Thermostart pre-heating system aids cold-weather starting, and the intake air is filtered through an oil bath cleaner.

The 1365 is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations. Transmission options include a partially synchronized 8-speed forward and 2-reverse gearbox, with synchronized shifting between gears 3-4 and 7-8. A 12-speed creeper transmission is also available for applications requiring slow ground speeds. Final drives are of the planetary type, and the machine is equipped with mechanical band brakes.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system utilizes an open-center design with a pump flow rate of 5.76 gpm (21.8 lpm) and an operating pressure of 2133 psi (147.1 bar). The rear 3-point hitch is compatible with Category I/II implements and features both position and draft control, offering a maximum lift capacity of 3100 lbs (1406 kg).
PTO and Electrical
The tractor is equipped with an independent rear power take-off (PTO) capable of operating at 540 or 1000 RPM. The 540 RPM speed is achieved at a rated engine speed of 1970 RPM. The electrical system is powered by a 12-volt battery and features a 42-amp alternator charging system.
