B.F. AVERY V POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The B.F. Avery V tractor features a Hercules ZXB-3 gasoline engine with a modest displacement of 64.9 cubic inches (1.1 L), providing adequate power for light agricultural tasks in smaller fields. Its 4-cylinder configuration and liquid cooling allow for smoother operation at the rated RPM of 1800, enhancing efficiency and reducing overheating risks during prolonged use. However, its relatively low displacement may limit performance in heavy-duty applications, making it less suitable for large-scale farming compared to competitors with higher horsepower engines.

TRANSMISSION
The B.F. Avery V tractor features an unsynchronized gear system with 3 forward and 1 reverse gear, allowing for straightforward operation but requiring precise timing during gear shifting. An advantage of this design is its simplicity and reduced mechanical complexity, making it easier to maintain; however, operators may face challenges when shifting gears under load, potentially leading to increased wear. This configuration is ideal for agricultural tasks that require frequent direction changes but may not suit applications demanding rapid speed adjustments.

MECHANICAL
The B.F. Avery V tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, providing basic traction suitable for light to moderate tasks in flat terrain but may struggle on inclines or loose surfaces. Its manual steering offers simplicity but can result in increased operator fatigue during extended use compared to power-assisted systems. The 3-speed unsynchronized transmission allows for straightforward operation, though shifting may require more skill, particularly when adapting to varying load conditions, making it less ideal for rapidly changing field situations.

B.F. AVERY V TIRES
The B.F. Avery V tractor features a dual tire configuration with 4.00x15 front tires and 8.00x24 rear tires, enhancing stability and traction, particularly in agricultural applications. The larger rear tires provide improved flotation and reduced soil compaction, making it suitable for various terrains. However, the limited front tire size may affect steering control in heavy-duty operations, necessitating careful maneuvering in tight spaces.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The B.F. Avery V tractor, weighing 1612 lbs (731 kg), features a front tire size of 4.00x15 and a rear tire size of 8.00x24, offering a good balance for traction and stability in light to moderate agricultural tasks. The front tire width provides maneuverability in tight spaces, while the larger rear tires enhance ground contact for better pulling power during field operations. However, its weight may limit performance on uneven terrain, making it less suitable for heavy-duty applications.
