Introduction
White 4-180 Articulated 4WD Tractor
The White 4-180 is an articulated four-wheel-drive tractor produced between 1975 and 1978. Designed for heavy-duty agricultural operations, this machine belongs to the high-horsepower segment of its era, offering significant traction and power for large-scale field work.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Caterpillar 8-cylinder V-8 liquid-cooled diesel engine with a displacement of 636 cubic inches (10.4 liters). It utilizes a direct injection fuel system with a 16.5:1 compression ratio, generating 210 horsepower at a rated engine speed of 2800 RPM. The engine is supported by a dry-type air cleaner and an electric 12-volt starting system.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The drivetrain features a gear-type transmission providing 12 forward and 4 reverse speeds. Power is transferred through a 330.2 mm cerametallic disc clutch. The tractor is equipped with a four-wheel drive system, articulated power steering for maneuverability, and planetary final drives for durability under load.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system is a closed-center design operating at 2200 psi, delivering a pump flow of 20 gallons per minute (75.7 lpm). It includes two valves and a 9-gallon reservoir capacity. The rear hitch is a Category III type with position control, capable of lifting 6000 lbs (2721 kg).
Operator Environment and Dimensions
The operator station consists of a standard factory cab equipped with heating and air conditioning. The tractor has a wheelbase of 115.6 inches (293 cm) and an operating weight of 20,600 lbs (9344 kg). Its dimensions include a length of 238 inches and a minimum width of 96 inches.
Conclusion
With its robust Caterpillar engine, articulated steering, and substantial lift capacity, the White 4-180 was engineered for demanding primary tillage and high-acreage field applications, representing a period of significant development in high-horsepower tractor design.
