BUKH HERCULES POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Bukh Hercules tractor, equipped with a 6-cylinder 6K105 diesel engine, delivers a robust power output of 93 hp at a relatively low rated RPM of 1865, which enhances fuel efficiency during prolonged operations. Its significant displacement of 412.2 ci (6.8 L) and a bore/stroke ratio of 4.134x5.118 inches suggests potential for high torque generation, beneficial for heavy-duty tasks and towing applications. However, challenges may include maintenance of the liquid-cooled system and weight considerations, impacting maneuverability in certain terrains.

TRANSMISSION
The Bukh Hercules tractor features an 8-speed forward and 4-speed reverse gearbox, offering enhanced maneuverability and versatility for various agricultural tasks. The wide range of forward gears allows operators to adjust speed and torque according to the terrain, while the additional reverse gears facilitate smooth navigation in tight spaces, particularly during loader operations. However, operators may need to develop proficiency with gear shifting to optimize performance, especially in challenging field conditions.

MECHANICAL
The Bukh Hercules tractor features a 4x2 two-wheel drive (2WD) chassis, providing basic traction suitable for lighter agricultural tasks on relatively flat terrain. Its 8-speed transmission enables efficient speed control and adaptability for various applications, enhancing operational versatility. However, the lack of four-wheel drive may limit performance in challenging conditions such as muddy fields or rugged landscapes.
