BOLINDER-MUNKTELL 25 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Bolinder-Munktell 25 features a robust 2-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 5.3 L and generates 32 hp, making it suitable for light to medium-duty applications. Its low-rated RPM of 900 allows for efficient torque delivery and minimizes wear under continuous operations. However, its oil and coolant capacities (15.9 qts and 25.4 qts, respectively) indicate a need for regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance in extended usage scenarios.

BOLINDER-MUNKTELL 25 ENGINE
The Bolinder-Munktell 25 is equipped with a robust 5.3L 2-cylinder diesel engine, which provides adequate torque for various agricultural tasks, although it may lack the horsepower of larger modern tractors. Its fuel tank capacity of 19.8 gallons (74.9 liters) allows for extended operational periods, but fuel efficiency can be a concern, particularly under heavy load. Ideal scenarios include small to medium-scale farming operations where maneuverability and simplicity are prioritized over power.

MECHANICAL
The Bolinder-Munktell 25, with its 4x2 2WD chassis, offers simplicity and ease of maintenance, making it suitable for light farm work and maneuvering in tight spaces. Its manual steering may require more physical effort, particularly in challenging terrain, while the 4-speed gear transmission provides versatility for varying speeds and tasks. However, operators should be mindful that the open operator station lacks protection from the elements, which could impact comfort during extended use.
