The V490F is equipped with a partially synchronized transmission offering 32 forward and 32 reverse gears, operated via a dry disc clutch. It features a 4x4 MFWD (Mechanical Front Wheel Drive) system, complemented by a mechanical rear differential lock to enhance traction in difficult field conditions.

Hydraulics and PTO

Equipped with an independent rear PTO operating at 540 RPM (1.375-inch shaft), the tractor supports a wide array of implements. The hydraulic rear hitch follows the JISII/I standard and includes both position and draft control systems, allowing for precise depth and load management during soil engagement.

Dimensions and Chassis

The tractor has a wheelbase of 225 cm and a total weight of 2945 kg. It provides a ground clearance of 41 cm, making it suitable for uneven terrain. The steering is power-assisted, and braking is handled by hydraulic wet disc brakes. Standard agricultural tire configurations consist of 9.5-24 front tires and 16.9-30 rear tires.

Conclusion

The Shibaura V490F is a balanced utility tractor suited for general agricultural work where power, manual gear selection, and reliable traction are required.
