ENGINE DETAIL

The ATC 300 features a Continental F-140 engine, delivering 36.5 hp at 1850 RPM, which allows for efficient performance in moderate-load applications like small-scale farming and landscaping. Its 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled configuration aids in thermal management, enhancing durability during prolonged operation. However, with a relatively low power output, it may face challenges in heavy-duty tasks, making it ideal for light agricultural duties rather than demanding tasks like plowing large fields.

ATC 300 ENGINE

The ATC 300 tractor is powered by a Continental 2.3L 4-cylinder gasoline engine, providing adequate power for light to medium agricultural tasks. The gasoline engine offers quick startups and lower emissions compared to diesel alternatives, but may have reduced torque at low RPMs, which could challenge performance in heavy tillage scenarios. Additionally, consider fuel efficiency and operating costs, as gasoline tractors generally consume more fuel than their diesel counterparts under equivalent workloads.

TRANSMISSION

The ATC 300 tractor features a straightforward gear system with 3 forward and 1 reverse gear, providing basic maneuverability suitable for light agricultural tasks. Its dry disc clutch is durable and maintenance-friendly but may require more effort during engagement compared to hydrodynamic systems, potentially impacting operator comfort in prolonged operations. Ideal for small-scale farming or hobbyist applications, this tractor is best suited for lighter towing and transportation duties due to its limited gear options.

MECHANICAL

The ATC 300 tractor features a crawler chassis, providing enhanced traction on soft or uneven terrains, though it may limit speed compared to wheeled counterparts. Its spur gear final drives offer precise control and durability, while contracting band brakes provide reliable stopping power, albeit with potential maintenance challenges. The open operator station enhances visibility and ventilation; however, it offers less protection from the elements, making it ideal for controlled environments or in mild weather conditions.
