ENGINE DETAIL

The Century 2629 tractor features a robust 3-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 1.5 L, delivering a power output of 29 hp, making it suitable for light to moderate agricultural tasks. With a high compression ratio of 21.2:1, it offers improved fuel efficiency and torque, although maintenance of the dry air cleaner is crucial to prevent dust-related performance issues. Its compact size and low rated RPM of 2600 may benefit small farms or hobbyist operations but may limit its application in heavier-duty environments.

ENGINE OIL

The Century 2629 tractor's oil capacity of 6.4 quarts (6.1 liters) is essential for ensuring optimal lubrication and engine performance. It's crucial to maintain this oil level to prevent potential engine wear or failure, especially during prolonged operations. Pros include better heat dissipation and engine longevity, while a challenge could arise from ensuring timely oil changes to maintain its efficiency.

CENTURY 2629 ENGINE

The Century 2629 tractor features a Kukje 1.5L 3-cylinder diesel engine, which provides efficient fuel consumption and robust torque for agricultural tasks. With its compact size, this tractor is ideal for smaller farms and maneuvering in tight spaces, although it may struggle with heavier loads compared to larger models. Key considerations include ensuring adequate power for specific implements and managing maintenance for optimal performance and longevity.

TRANSMISSION

The Century 2629 tractor features a partially synchronized transmission with 12 forward and reverse gears, allowing for flexibility in various field operations; however, the requirement to stop the tractor to shift ranges and shuttle may slow down workflow in time-sensitive tasks. Its oil capacity of 37 quarts (35.0 L) is adequate for robust operation, while the use of JDM J20C and J20D oils at specified temperature ranges ensures optimal lubrication and performance. This setup is advantageous for agricultural applications requiring versatile speed adjustments but may challenge operators needing rapid gear changes.

Type partially synchronized
Gears 12 forward and reverse
Oil capacity 37 qts/35.0 L
10oF [-12oC] : JDM J20C
70o?-40oF [21o?-40oC] : JDM J20D
Description Four gears in three ranges with left-hand shuttle. Gear shift is synchronized with clutch. Tractor must be stopped to shift range and shuttle.

MECHANICAL

The Century 2629 tractor features a 4x4 MFWD (Mechanical Front Wheel Drive) chassis for enhanced traction on varied terrain, making it ideal for both fieldwork and road transport. Its hydrostatic power steering provides superior maneuverability, while the differential wet disc brakes deliver reliable stopping power even in wet conditions; however, the absence of fully synchronized transmission may require more operator skill during gear changes. Overall, this tractor is well-suited for tasks that demand versatility and efficiency, such as plowing or hauling, but users should be mindful of the transmission’s operational demands.

CENTURY 2629 TIRES

The Century 2629 tractor is versatile, supporting multiple tire configurations for agricultural, lawn/turf, and industrial applications. It has a narrower agricultural front (7-16) and a broader agricultural rear (12.4-24), enhancing stability and traction in farming scenarios. The combination of turf tires (27x8.50-15 front and 41x14.00-20 rear) allows for minimal ground disturbance in landscaping, while industrial tires (10-16.5 front and 420/70-24 rear) are suited for heavier load-bearing and off-road tasks, making it adaptable for various operational contexts.
