Introduction
White 140 Row-Crop Tractor
The White 140 is a row-crop tractor produced between 1987 and 1989 in Coldwater, Ohio, USA. Designed for heavy-duty agricultural operations, this model offers a power output of 152 horsepower and was positioned as a versatile machine for mid-to-large scale farming tasks.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 6-cylinder, 5.9-liter (359 ci) CDC turbocharged diesel engine. It utilizes direct injection and liquid cooling to maintain efficiency. The engine operates at a rated speed of 2200 RPM and features a compression ratio of 16.5:1. Dual paper elements are utilized for the air intake system.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The drivetrain features a partial powershift transmission providing 18 forward and 6 reverse gears. This system utilizes a 355.6mm dry disc clutch and an over/under powershift mechanism for each gear, allowing for precise speed adjustments. The tractor was available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations, supported by planetary final drives.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system is of the closed-center pressure-compensated type, delivering a pump flow of 22 gpm (83.3 lpm) at a pressure of 2250 psi (155.1 bar). The system supports 2 or 3 valves. The rear hitch is compatible with category III/II implements and features both position and draft control, with a maximum lift capacity of 7410 lbs (3361 kg).
Mechanical and Operator Environment
Standard mechanical equipment includes power steering, independent hydraulic wet disc brakes, and a hydraulic rear differential lock. The operator station consists of a standard cab factory-equipped with air conditioning. The rear PTO operates independently with selectable speeds of 540 or 1000 RPM.
Conclusion
The White 140 represents a robust row-crop solution from the late 1980s, balancing substantial lift capacity and hydraulic performance with operator comfort. Its configuration makes it suitable for demanding field operations requiring consistent power and multiple gear ratios.
