Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 4.2-liter, 4-cylinder diesel engine.

Hydraulics and Hitch
Equipped with a hydraulic pump flow of 10.8 gpm (40.9 lpm), the system supports the operation of various hydraulic implements. The rear three-point hitch provides a lift capacity of 8,158 lbs (3,700 kg), allowing for the attachment of heavy-duty soil engagement tools.
Dimensions and Weight
The tractor has a wheelbase of 91.34 inches and an overall length of 157.09 inches. The 2WD model weighs approximately 7,188 lbs, while the 4WD version reaches 7,871 lbs. It is typically fitted with 7.50-18 front tires and 16.9-34 rear tires for balanced weight distribution and ground contact.
