ENGINES OVERVIEW

The Bukh 302 tractor features a robust 2.0L or 2.3L 2-cylinder diesel engine, providing adequate torque and fuel efficiency for various agricultural applications. Pros include its compact size, suitable for small to medium farms, and low operating costs; however, the 2-cylinder design may lead to higher vibration levels compared to 3-cylinder counterparts. Ideal for tasks requiring maneuverability in tight spaces, but operators should consider the trade-off in stability and power delivery during heavy load operations.

TRANSMISSION

The Bukh 302 tractor features an 8-forward and 4-reverse gear transmission, allowing for versatile speed control and improved traction across varying terrains. The combination of four gears in two ranges enables efficient operation in both low and high-speed tasks, enhancing productivity in agricultural applications. However, the complexity of shifting between ranges may require skilled operation for optimal performance in demanding scenarios.

Gears	8 forward and 4 reverse
Description	Four gears in two ranges, plus reverse range.

MECHANICAL

The Bukh 302 tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, optimal for flat terrain and lighter agricultural tasks, but may struggle on inclines or uneven surfaces due to limited traction. Its open operator station enhances visibility and air circulation, although it exposes the operator to weather conditions, which could affect comfort during long hours. The 8-speed gear transmission allows for a variety of speed options, improving efficiency for different field operations, but the gear shifting may require practice for seamless operation.
