DEUTZ-FAHR 5125 ENGINE

The Deutz-Fahr 5125 features a robust 3.6L 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing reliable power and efficiency for medium-duty applications. With a fuel tank capacity of 35.7 gallons (135.1L), it allows for extended operation between refueling, essential for agricultural tasks. However, the inclusion of a 2.1-gallon (7.9L) DEF tank means operators must monitor additional fluid levels to meet emissions standards, which could result in increased maintenance frequency.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Deutz-Fahr 5125 tractor features a 20-speed or optional 30-speed partial power shift transmission, providing enhanced torque management and fuel efficiency for various field applications. The advantage of a partial power shift is the smoother gear changes which reduce engine load during shifting, increasing productivity in demanding tasks. However, operators may experience a steeper learning curve with more gears to manage effectively, impacting initial user experience.
