BARREIROS R-500 B POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Barreiros R-500 B features a robust A60 diesel engine, with a displacement of 3.3L producing 60hp at 3,600 RPM, ideal for moderate agricultural tasks. Both intake and exhaust valve clearances are set at 0.010 inches, which is crucial for maintaining optimal engine performance and efficiency. While the tractor’s 12-volt starter system ensures reliable starts, the engine's moderate power output might limit performance in heavy-duty applications, making it suitable for smaller farms or light-duty operations.

TRANSMISSION
The Barreiros R-500 B tractor features a 5-speed forward and 1-speed reverse gearbox, which allows for versatile maneuverability and efficient speed management in various field conditions. The five forward gears provide a range of power outputs to tackle different tasks, from plowing to towing, while the single reverse gear can limit navigation efficiency in tighter spaces. Overall, this gear configuration is advantageous for straightforward agricultural operations, but may be less optimal for complex tasks requiring frequent directional changes.

MECHANICAL
The Barreiros R-500 B features a 4x2 2WD configuration, providing basic maneuverability suitable for light agricultural tasks, though its two-wheel drive may limit performance in uneven terrain or muddy conditions. The open operator station enhances operator visibility and comfort but offers minimal protection from the elements. With a 5-speed transmission, it allows adequate control over speed variations, making it versatile for different field operations, yet may require adept driving skills to optimize efficiency during shifts.

BARREIROS R-500 B TIRES
The Barreiros R-500 B tractor features a front tire configuration of 6-16 inches and a rear tire configuration of 12-36 inches, which provides a good balance between maneuverability and traction for agricultural applications. This setup is advantageous for navigating diverse terrains; however, the narrower front tires may struggle in soft soil conditions. Optimal in medium-sized farms, the tractor’s size and tire dimensions allow for efficient cultivation and transport of materials in tighter spaces.
