Introduction
White 4-325 Four-Wheel Drive Tractor
The White 4-325 is a high-horsepower four-wheel drive tractor developed as a prototype in 1984. Manufactured in Charles City, Iowa, USA, this machine represents a notable stage in the evolution of the White tractor lineup before the conclusion of their heavy-duty four-wheel drive production.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Caterpillar 3406 six-cylinder, liquid-cooled, turbocharged, and aftercooled diesel engine. With a displacement of 893 cubic inches (14.6 liters) and a bore/stroke ratio of 5.40 by 6.50 inches, the engine delivers 325 horsepower (242.4 kW). This high-capacity power plant was engineered to support intensive agricultural traction requirements.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The drivetrain utilizes a partial power shift transmission, providing the operator with 16 forward gears and 4 reverse gears. This configuration allows for adjustments in speed and torque without requiring a complete stop, facilitating more efficient operation under varying load conditions.
Mechanical Configuration
Designed for heavy field work, the tractor features a four-wheel drive system. Maneuverability is managed through a hydraulic articulated steering system, which is standard for tractors of this class and size. The unit was equipped with a standard cabin to house the operator.
Conclusion
The White 4-325 remains a rare prototype, with historical records suggesting that only three or four units were built. It serves as a technical example of the high-horsepower engineering standards pursued by White during the mid-1980s.
