ENGINE DETAIL

The Chery RK650 tractor features a Xin Chai A4K43T diesel engine with a robust 4.3L displacement, capable of delivering 65hp and 90lb-ft of torque at a low RPM of 1650, offering excellent low-end power for heavy-duty applications. The direct injection fuel system promotes efficient combustion, while the oil bath air cleaner enhances engine longevity by reducing particulate intake. Advantages include its strong torque characteristics favorable for towing and ground engagement tasks, but potential challenges may arise from the relatively high operating torque RPM, necessitating careful matching with transmission gear ratios.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Chery RK650 tractor features a robust 12-speed shuttle gearbox, providing versatile speed management suitable for various agricultural tasks. With 8-speed main gears, operators gain flexibility in selecting optimal torque and power for heavy implements. However, the complexity of a multi-speed system may require more maintenance and operator training for efficient usage.

CHERY RK650 TIRES

The Chery RK650 tractor comes equipped with standard agricultural tires, providing a balance between stability and traction, especially suitable for field operations due to the front 6.0-16 and rear 14.9-28 sizes. Upgrading to optional tires (front 8.3-24 and rear 11-32) can enhance flotation and ground contact, reducing soil compaction in softer terrains, but may impact maneuverability in tight spaces. Consider the specific soil conditions and operational requirements when selecting tire sizes for optimal performance.

Standard tires (ag) Front: 6.0-16. Rear: 14.9-28
Optional tires (ag) Front: 8.3-24. Rear: 11-32

DIMENSIONS & TIRES

The Chery RK650 tractor features a compact wheelbase of 80.3 inches (203 cm), enhancing maneuverability in tight spaces, making it ideal for small farming tasks or landscaping. Weighing 4409 lbs (1999 kg) allows for decent stability under load, but it may limit larger implement compatibility. The front tires (6.0-16) provide adequate traction, while the larger rear tires (14.9-28) ensure improved power transfer to the ground during heavier operations, though this configuration may sacrifice some agility on uneven terrain.
