Print Quality Quality: Digital download quality - dependent on the source. Typically high-resolution for clear viewing of diagrams. Binding Type Type: N/A (Digital Download) Paper Type Type: N/A (Digital Download) ⚙️ Engine Specifications Primary Engine Make Model: Likely a diesel engine from a reputable manufacturer like Mitsubishi, Yanmar, Perkins, or a proprietary Ransomes engine, depending on the production era and regional sourcing. Displacement: Typically in the range of 1.5L to 3.0L for utility tractors of this size, though specific data would be required from the manual or accompanying vehicle identification. Fuel Type: Diesel Cooling System: Liquid-cooled, typically with a radiator, fan, and thermostat. Performance Horsepower Range: Estimated 25-40 HP (Gross), depending on the specific engine variant and tuning. The '220' might hint at a specific power output or engine family. Fuel System Injection Type: Likely direct injection or indirect injection diesel, with a mechanical or potentially electronic fuel pump. 🔧 Transmission Standard Type: Manual transmission, likely with multiple gear ranges (e.g., 8-speed, 12-speed, or 16-speed forward and reverse). Optional Type: Possibly a synchronized transmission or a shuttle-shift gearbox for easier directional changes, depending on the trim level or options. Features Pto: Rear Power Take-Off (PTO) typically standard, with common speeds like 540 RPM, and potentially a 540 Economy PTO or independent PTO (IPTO). Differential Lock: Rear differential lock usually standard on 4WD models for improved traction. Clutch: Typically a dry single-plate or dual-plate clutch for engaging/disengaging the engine from the transmission. 📐 Dimensions Exterior Wheelbase: Variable, typical for this class of tractor would be around 60-80 inches (152-203 cm). Overall Length: Variable, typically 100-130 inches (254-330 cm) without implements. Ground Clearance: Variable, typically sufficient for agricultural use, around 12-18 inches (30-45 cm). Weights Operating Weight: Estimated 2500-4000 lbs (1134-1814 kg), depending on configuration and options. 🛡️ Safety Features Ratings Rollover Protection: ROPS (Roll Over Protective Structure) is typically standard or an available option, essential for operator safety. Seatbelt is also standard with ROPS. Active Features Braking System: Typically internal expanding shoe or disc brakes, often wet disc brakes on 4WD models for improved durability and performance. Passive Features Operator Presence Control: Seat-activated switches to disengage PTO and transmission when the operator leaves the seat. 💡 Technology Features Infotainment Features: Basic operator interface. Typically includes analog...
