ENGINE DETAIL

The Cletrac AG-6 tractor is powered by a Continental F226 gasoline engine, boasting a displacement of 226 ci (3.7 L) and a 6-cylinder configuration, which provides robust power at a rated RPM of 1530. Its oil bath air cleaner enhances filtration, while the engine's firing order (1-5-3-6-2-4) ensures efficient combustion, though maintenance of the spark plug gap at 0.022 inches is critical for optimal performance. However, with an oil capacity of 8 qts and coolant capacity of 20 qts, operators should be mindful of ensuring proper fluid levels to prevent overheating or lubrication issues during demanding tasks.

CLETRAC AG-6 ENGINE

The Cletrac AG-6 features a Continental 3.7L 6-cylinder gasoline engine, offering a balance of power and efficiency, suitable for light agricultural tasks. With an 18-gallon (68.1 L) fuel tank, it provides extended operational time, minimizing downtime for refueling during fieldwork. However, the reliance on gasoline may limit its fuel economy compared to diesel alternatives, potentially impacting cost-efficiency over longer-term use.

TRANSMISSION

The Cletrac AG-6 features a simple 3-speed forward and 1-speed reverse gearbox, offering basic versatility for agricultural tasks. Its dry disc clutch provides reliable engagement but may require more maintenance compared to hydraulic alternatives. This tractor is suitable for light to moderate agricultural duties, although limited gearing may challenge performance in varied terrain.

MECHANICAL

The Cletrac AG-6 tractor features a crawler chassis, providing excellent traction and stability on uneven terrain, making it ideal for agricultural applications. Its differential steering combined with wet band brakes enhances maneuverability, allowing for precise handling in tight spaces, although this may lead to increased wear over time. The open operator station ensures good visibility, but exposes the operator to environmental elements, which could be a drawback in harsh conditions.
