Get ready to discover a machine that combines raw power with thoughtful design, making it a standout in its era.

Unleash the Power: Engine and Performance

Under the hood of the Minneapolis-Moline 2055 lies a formidable 6-cylinder, liquid-cooled LP gas engine. With a displacement of 504 cubic inches (8.3 L), this powerhouse delivers a commanding 122 horsepower at a steady 1800 RPM. The engine's efficiency is further enhanced by its dry air cleaner and a compression ratio of 8.8:1, ensuring optimal combustion and longevity. With a generous coolant capacity of 30 quarts and an oil capacity of 13 quarts, this engine is built for sustained operation under demanding conditions.

Master Your Work: Transmission and Drivetrain

Get ready for unparalleled control with the Minneapolis-Moline 2055's transmission options. Choose between the efficient two-speed power shift offering 10 forward and 2 reverse gears, or step up to the three-speed power shift for an even wider range of 15 forward and 3 reverse gears. Both feature the reliable Minneapolis-Moline Ampli-Torc system and a robust 355.6mm dry disc clutch. Coupled with independent two- or four-wheel drive capability and power steering, navigating fields and tight spots becomes a breeze.

Built for the Field: Hydraulics and PTO

The Minneapolis-Moline 2055 is equipped with a versatile open-center hydraulic system, featuring 2 or 3 valves to handle a wide array of implements. For power take-off needs, the independent rear PTO offers selectable speeds of 540/1000 RPM (1.375), ensuring compatibility with virtually any attached equipment. The wet disc clutch provides smooth engagement, further enhancing the tractor's operational efficiency.

Operator Comfort and Control

Designed with the operator in mind, the 2055 features an open operator station for maximum visibility and airflow. For those working in varied climates, an optional cab complete with heating and air conditioning provides a comfortable working environment year-round. The sturdy build, combined with reliable disc brakes, ensures safety and confidence during operation, no matter the task.

Dimensions for Dominance

With a substantial length of 171 inches (434 cm) and a row-crop wheelbase of 104.5 inches (265 cm), the Minneapolis-Moline 2055 offers excellent stability. Its adjustable rear tread can range from 60 to 90 inches (152 to 228 cm), allowing for precise cultivation. The standard front tire size of 7.50-16 and rear 18.4-34 provide ample traction, while the generous ground clearance ensures it can handle uneven terrain with ease.
