Introduction
Minneapolis-Moline G1355, standard tractor
The Minneapolis-Moline G1355 is a two-wheel-drive agricultural tractor produced by Oliver between 1972 and 1974 in Charles City, Iowa. Positioned as a high-power machine for heavy-duty field operations, it features a 6-cylinder LP-gas engine and offers multiple transmission configurations to suit various operational requirements.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 504 cubic inch (8.3 L) 6-cylinder liquid-cooled engine. It operates at a rated speed of 2200 RPM and utilizes LP-gas as fuel. The engine system includes a dry-type air cleaner, a 12-volt starter, and requires 11.4 liters of oil alongside a 28.4-liter cooling capacity to maintain thermal stability during intensive tasks.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Operators can choose between two transmission systems: a standard 6-speed gear transmission with 2 reverse gears, or an 18-speed three-range 'Hydraul-Shift' power shift transmission. Both configurations utilize a 355.6 mm dry disc clutch to manage power delivery to the planetary final drives.
Hydraulics and PTO
The G1355 is equipped with a closed-center hydraulic system providing a pump flow of 20 gpm (75.7 lpm). The rear hitch is compatible with Category III/II implements and offers a lift capacity of 6,000 lbs (2,721 kg). The independent rear PTO supports both 540 and 1000 RPM speeds, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of powered implements.
Dimensions and Chassis
Built on a 111-inch (281 cm) wheelbase, the tractor has an operating weight of 17,100 lbs (7,756 kg), which can be increased to 18,070 lbs (8,196 kg) when ballasted. It features power steering and dry disc brakes for control. The standard open station can be supplemented with an optional cab equipped with air conditioning.
Conclusion
The Minneapolis-Moline G1355 is a robust, high-capacity tractor designed for large-scale agricultural operations requiring significant traction and power. Its combination of hydraulic capabilities, versatile transmission options, and stable chassis makes it a reliable choice for heavy tillage and draft applications.
