BOLENS H1502 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Bolens H1502 is powered by a Mitsubishi K3A diesel engine with a 15hp output at 2600 RPM, providing efficient performance for light to medium agricultural tasks. Its 22:1 compression ratio and glow plug pre-heating enhance cold start capability, while 30.4 lb-ft of torque at 1800 RPM ensures adequate pulling power for implements. However, users should monitor the 4.4 qt coolant capacity to prevent overheating during prolonged operations, especially in warmer climates.

ENGINE OIL
The Bolens H1502 has an oil capacity of 2.7 quarts (2.6 liters), which is relatively small, making regular maintenance crucial to prevent engine wear. With a recommended oil change interval of every 100 hours, adherence to this schedule is essential for optimal engine performance and longevity. Be mindful of oil type and quality, as these factors significantly affect lubrication and overall efficiency.

TRANSMISSION
The Bolens H1502 tractor features a hydrostatic transmission, allowing for smooth, infinitely variable speed control in forward and reverse, which enhances maneuverability and reduces operator fatigue. Its oil capacity of 13.7 quarts (13.0 liters) ensures adequate lubrication for prolonged use, contributing to engine longevity and optimal performance. However, the hydrostatic system may require more maintenance compared to conventional gear systems, and understanding fluid levels is crucial to avoid operation issues.

MECHANICAL
The Bolens H1502 features a 4x2 2WD chassis with a mechanical differential lock, enhancing traction for challenging terrains while limiting the effectiveness on steep inclines due to the lack of 4WD. Its manual steering may require more effort than power-assisted systems, especially during longer operations. The hydrostatic transmission provides smooth control and variable speed adjustments, making it advantageous for tasks requiring precise maneuvers, but could be less efficient in terms of fuel economy compared to traditional gear transmissions.

BOLENS H1502 TIRES
The Bolens H1502 tractor features standard agricultural tires that provide enhanced traction and stability in varied soil conditions, with front tires sized 4.50x10 and rear tires at 8-16. This configuration is advantageous for light to moderate agricultural tasks, as it allows for maneuverability in tight spaces while maintaining a low ground pressure. However, the tire size may limit its performance in more rugged terrains, necessitating careful consideration for heavy-duty applications or diverse farming scenarios.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Bolens H1502 tractor features a compact wheelbase of 50.4 inches, enhancing maneuverability in tight spaces, ideal for landscaping or gardening tasks. The front tire size of 4.50x10 offers a lower profile for easier handling, while the rear tire size of 8-16 provides better traction and stability for heavier loads. However, the small tire sizes can limit ground clearance on uneven terrain, which may present a challenge in more rugged applications.
