TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Deutz-Allis 8070 tractor features a 20-speed partial power shift transmission, which enhances operational flexibility and efficiency in varied field conditions. The 12-speed Allis-Chalmers system ensures smooth gear transitions, optimizing torque and power delivery. However, the complexity of the transmission may require specialized maintenance, making it essential for operators to have a solid understanding of its mechanics for optimal performance.

Description 20-speed partial power shift 12-speed Allis-Chalmers

TRANSMISSION 1

The Deutz-Allis 8070 features an Allis-Chalmers Power Director transmission, which allows for 20 forward and 4 reverse speeds, enabling versatile operation across various terrains and tasks. The partial power shift transmission enhances productivity by allowing seamless shifting under load, though it may present a learning curve for operators unfamiliar with multi-range transmissions. With an oil capacity of 29.6 quarts (28.0L), maintaining proper fluid levels is crucial for optimal performance and longevity of the power shift system.

TRANSMISSION 2

The Deutz-Allis 8070 tractor features a 12 forward and 2 reverse power shift transmission, allowing for efficient operation across various speeds and tasks. Its clutch-assisted range shifting can enhance ease of use, particularly during heavy load operations, but requires operator awareness to prevent unintended downshifts. The hydraulic oil capacity of 29.6 quarts is critical for maintaining optimal transmission function and cooling, thus regular monitoring is necessary to avoid operational issues.

MECHANICAL

The Deutz-Allis 8070 is equipped with a versatile 4x2 and optional 4x4 MFWD chassis configuration, allowing for flexibility in various field conditions. Its hydrostatic power steering enhances maneuverability, while the differential hydraulic wet disc brakes provide improved stopping power under load. With a 20-speed partial power shift transmission, operators can optimize performance for both fieldwork and transport scenarios, although maintenance for such a system could be more complex than standard gear systems.

DEUTZ-ALLIS 8070 TIRES

The Deutz-Allis 8070 features a 2WD configuration, suitable for lighter agricultural tasks but may struggle in muddy or hilly terrains due to reduced traction. The rear tire options (20.8-38, 18.4-42, and 16.9-38) provide versatility in load-bearing and stability, with wider tires enhancing flotation and soil conservation. However, the 2WD setup limits its capability compared to 4WD models in terms of power transfer and maneuverability in challenging conditions.
