This 4-cylinder powerhouse, with a displacement of 283.7 cubic inches (4.6 L), runs on kerosene and delivers a reliable 27 horsepower at a rated 1000 RPM. Starting is handled by a classic hand-crank, and the fuel system relies on a Schebler TT carburetor, ensuring dependable performance for demanding tasks.

Maneuverability meets strength with the MT's gear transmission, featuring 3 forward and 1 reverse gear. Coupled with a dry disc clutch, this setup provides the versatility needed for a wide range of agricultural applications, from plowing fields to transporting goods. The tractor is a classic two-wheel drive model, emphasizing simplicity and robust functionality.

Operator Comfort and Control

Designed for the realities of farm work, the Twin City MT features an open operator station, offering excellent visibility of the surrounding area. The manual steering system ensures precise control, allowing the operator to navigate fields with confidence and ease, making long working days more manageable.

With a width of 93 inches (236 cm) and a substantial weight of 4,860 lbs (2204 kg), the MT provides the stability and presence required for heavy-duty agricultural work.
