Printability: All pages are printable, allowing for physical reference copies. Binding Type Binding: N/A (Digital product, no physical binding) Paper Type Paper: N/A (Digital product, no physical paper type) ⚙️ Engine Specifications Primary Engine Engine Make Model: Likely Cummins or Case IH branded engine. Specific model number is not provided in the product information, but typically would be a 6-cylinder diesel in this class. Displacement: Typically in the range of 400-500 cubic inches (approx. 6.5 - 8.2 Liters) for tractors of this horsepower class and era. Fuel Type: Diesel Performance Horsepower Range: Estimated 120-140 PTO HP (Power Take-Off Horsepower), consistent with the '1270' model designation. Torque: Significant torque output for pulling heavy loads and maintaining power under load. Fuel System Injection Type: Likely direct injection, possibly with mechanical or early electronic control depending on the specific engine variant. 🔧 Transmission Standard Transmission Type: Often a manual gearbox with multiple speeds (e.g., 12-speed or 16-speed) with a synchronized range splitter or powershift options. Optional Powershift Availability: Possible option for a partial or full powershift transmission for on-the-go gear changes. Features Clutch: Dual-clutch (independent PTO clutch and main transmission clutch) or single dry-disc clutch systems are common. 📐 Dimensions Exterior Wheelbase: Varies, but typically around 100-110 inches for this tractor class. Overall Length: Approximately 160-180 inches (excluding 3-point hitch). Weights Operating Weight: Typically in the range of 14,000 - 18,000 lbs (6,350 - 8,165 kg) depending on configuration and options. Drawbar Horsepower: Relevant for pulling power, usually slightly less than PTO HP due to drivetrain losses. 🛡️ Safety Features Ratings Roll Over Protection: Often equipped with a Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) and seat belts as standard or optional equipment for operator safety. Active Features Braking System: Hydraulic disc brakes, typically sealed wet disc brakes for durability and performance in dusty conditions. Passive Features Operator Station Design: Ergonomic control placement, visibility considerations from the operator's seat. 💡 Technology Features Infotainment Infotainment System: Basic by modern standards. Likely includes an AM/FM radio and basic diagnostic indicators on the dashboard. Driver Assistance Driver Assistance Features: Limited to features like hydrostatic power steering and potentially independent...
