AGRICO 4+160 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Agrico 4+160 tractor features a robust Mercedes-Benz OM 906LA engine that provides significant power and torque, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications such as plowing or towing. With a displacement of 6.4 L and a torque peak at 1400 RPM, it offers a balance of efficiency and performance, crucial for demanding tasks. However, the high compression ratio of 17.4:1 may necessitate the use of higher-quality diesel fuel to prevent knocking, which could influence operating costs in the long term.

TRANSMISSION
The Agrico 4+160 tractor features a 6-speed transmission, allowing for efficient power transfer and versatile speed management across various agricultural tasks. This setup enhances control during both high-torque applications, like tilling, and higher-speed activities, such as transport. However, operators may face a steeper learning curve with shifting, especially in complex terrains, potentially impacting productivity in the initial phase.
MECHANICAL
The Agrico 4+160 features a 4x4 articulated 4WD chassis, which enhances maneuverability in diverse agricultural landscapes, especially in tight turning situations or uneven terrain. Its articulated power steering promotes reduced operator fatigue while improving handling precision. The four-post ROPS cab with optional air-conditioning adds safety and comfort, making it suited for extended use in varying weather conditions, though the lack of additional cab features might limit operator convenience compared to more advanced models.

AGRICO 4+160 TIRES
The Agrico 4+160 tractor features oversized 600/65-34 tires for both front and rear, enhancing traction and stability on various terrains, making it well-suited for agriculture applications such as tillage and planting. However, the larger tire size may also require additional power demand on the engine, potentially impacting fuel efficiency during operation. This tractor would be optimal for operations that demand high stability and traction, but users should monitor fuel consumption closely in demanding tasks.
