Introduction
Valmet 8100 Row-Crop Tractor
Produced between 1990 and 1996, the Valmet 8100 is a row-crop tractor belonging to the 8000 and 8200 series. Designed for agricultural versatility, this machine combines a six-cylinder diesel engine with robust mechanical components intended for field operations.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the SisuDiesel 620D, a liquid-cooled, 6-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 6.6 liters (402.6 cubic inches). It produces 118 hp (88.0 kW) at a rated speed of 2225 RPM. The engine delivers a maximum torque of 335.6 lb-ft (455.1 Nm) at 1550 RPM, utilizing a 16.5:1 compression ratio to manage power output efficiently.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 8100 is equipped with a four-wheel-drive system and power steering to enhance maneuverability. Operators can choose between two transmission configurations: a 24-speed two-speed power shift or a 36-speed Delta Powershift, both providing equal forward and reverse gear counts. Braking is handled by hydraulic wet disc brakes.
Hydraulics and PTO
The independent rear PTO offers two operational speeds, 540 and 1000 RPM, engaged at specific engine speeds of 1874 and 2080 RPM respectively. The hydraulic system utilizes a pump flow of 18.5 gpm (70.0 lpm), supporting a rear lift capacity of 12,125 lbs (5,499 kg) for handling various implements.
Dimensions and Operator Environment
The tractor features a wheelbase of 100.8 inches (256 cm) and an overall length of 187 inches (474 cm). It weighs 10,318 lbs (4,680 kg). The operator station includes a standard cab, which is equipped with air-conditioning to support extended periods of field work.
