Introduction
Wisconsin Thirty Tractor
The Wisconsin Thirty is a vintage agricultural tractor manufactured by Wisconsin Tractor in Sauk City, Wisconsin, between 1917 and 1920. This machine represents early 20th-century American tractor design, intended to meet the power requirements of farming operations during that era.
Engine Specifications
The tractor is powered by a 4-cylinder inline Climax engine. It features a displacement of approximately 510.5 cubic inches (8.4 liters), with a bore and stroke measurement of 5.00 by 6.50 inches (127 x 165 mm). This engine configuration was designed to provide consistent torque for field and stationary tasks.
Power Delivery
The Wisconsin Thirty was rated for two distinct power applications. It provided a drawbar power of 15 hp (11.2 kW) for pulling implements, and 30 hp (22.4 kW) at the belt pulley, which was commonly used at the time to drive stationary farm equipment such as threshers or saws.
Conclusion
The Wisconsin Thirty serves as a historical example of early tractor mechanization. With its 33 hp total power rating and specialized belt and drawbar capabilities, it was engineered as a versatile utility tractor for the agricultural conditions of the late 1910s.
