ENGINE DETAIL

The Allis Chalmers 210 tractor is powered by a robust 426ci (7.0L) turbocharged diesel engine with a high compression ratio of 16:1, providing excellent torque and power output at a rated RPM of 2200. Its 6-cylinder configuration enhances fuel efficiency and reduces operational vibrations, making it suitable for heavy-duty agricultural tasks. However, the engine's displacement and compression ratio may require specific maintenance practices to manage potential overheating and ensure optimal performance in taxing conditions.

ALLIS CHALMERS 210 ENGINE

The Allis Chalmers 210 is powered by a 7.0L 6-cylinder diesel engine, offering substantial torque for demanding agricultural tasks, making it suitable for heavy-duty operations. Its robust design ensures durability, although maintenance accessibility may be a challenge due to the engine's size. Operators should consider fuel efficiency, which may be lower in comparison to more modern diesel engines, impacting long-term operating costs in extensive farming scenarios.

TRANSMISSION

The Allis Chalmers 210 tractor features an 8 forward and 2 reverse gear sliding gear transmission paired with a dry disc clutch, providing versatility in various field applications. Its two-range system (low/high) allows for optimal performance across different crop conditions, enabling efficient torque management in both low-speed tasks and higher-speed travel. However, the sliding gear type may present challenges in terms of gear engagement wear and requires careful operation to prevent misalignment.

Type sliding gear
Gears 8 forward and 2 reverse
Clutch dry disc
Description Four gears (1-4) plus reverse (R) in two ranges (low/high)

MECHANICAL

The Allis Chalmers 210 tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, ideal for lighter agricultural applications, but may struggle in very muddy or hilly terrain due to lack of 4WD. Its hydrostatic power steering enhances maneuverability, while the disc brakes provide responsive stopping power, essential for safety in field operations. The optional QCS cab, introduced in 1972, offers improved comfort for extended use, making it a good choice for operators seeking versatility in tractor configurations.

ALLIS CHALMERS 210 TIRES

The Allis Chalmers 210's tire specifications indicate a balanced agricultural setup, with a wide rear tire (18.4-38) ideal for traction on varied terrain and a front tire (10.00-16) that supports better maneuverability. This configuration maximizes stability and load distribution, making it suitable for demanding agricultural tasks like plowing and tilling. However, users should be aware of the potential for compaction in softer soils, necessitating careful planning for wheel traffic management to minimize crop damage.
