Shibaura SE2540 Compact Utility Tractor

The Shibaura SE2540 is a compact utility tractor belonging to the SE2500 and SE3000 series. Designed for versatility in agricultural and landscaping environments, this machine combines a liquid-cooled diesel powertrain with a mechanical transmission system.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by the Shibaura LET 892, a 2-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine. It features a displacement of 1.3 liters (77.62 cubic inches) and produces 25 horsepower (18.6 kW) at a rated speed of 2500 RPM. The engine delivers a torque of 55.3 lb-ft (75.0 Nm) at 2000 RPM, with a compression ratio of 21:1. The fuel system is supported by an oil bath air cleaner to maintain engine longevity.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The powertrain is managed by a gear-type transmission providing 12 forward and 4 reverse speeds, organized into four ranges with three gears each. Power is transferred via a 316mm dry disc clutch to a four-wheel drive system. Steering is manual, and stopping power is provided by mechanical drum brakes.

Hydraulics and PTO

The SE2540 utilizes an open-center hydraulic system with a pump flow capacity of 5.3 gpm (20.1 lpm) and a system pressure of 2133 psi (147.1 bar). The rear Category I hitch provides a lift capacity of 2425 lbs (1099 kg) at the ends. The rear PTO operates at a standard speed of 540 RPM at 2500 engine RPM.
