BOLENS G152 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Bolens G152 features a Mitsubishi KE 70 diesel engine with a modest 15 hp output, making it suitable for light-duty tasks in confined spaces. Its liquid-cooled system and dry element air cleaner provide reliable performance and maintenance advantages, while the 12-volt electric starter ensures easy operation regardless of weather conditions. However, the limited power may pose challenges for more demanding applications, so it's best suited for small-scale farming and landscaping tasks.

ENGINE OIL
The Bolens G152 tractor has an oil capacity of 2.7 quarts (2.6 liters), necessitating routine oil changes every 100 hours of operation to maintain optimal engine performance. Regular oil changes can reduce wear and improve engine longevity, but failing to adhere to this schedule may lead to increased friction and potential engine damage. Always use manufacturer-specified oil to ensure proper lubrication under varying operating conditions.

TRANSMISSION
The Bolens G152 features an unsynchronized gear system with 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, necessitating a complete stop and clutch engagement for gear shifting, which can hinder operational efficiency during work but allows for robust control over low-speed tasks. The dry disc clutch provides reliability, yet it may experience wear under heavy loads, requiring regular maintenance checks to ensure optimal performance. With an oil capacity of 13 qts (12.3 L), proper lubrication is crucial for ensuring longevity and smooth operation—monitoring oil levels will be essential in prolonged usage scenarios.

MECHANICAL
The Bolens G152 features a 4x2 2WD chassis with a mechanical differential lock, ideal for enhanced traction on varied terrain. Its unsynchronized 6-speed transmission provides straightforward gear changes, though it may require experience for optimal shifting. The open operator station allows for better visibility and airflow, but exposes the operator to environmental conditions, which could be a drawback in inclement weather.
