DEUTZ-FAHR DX 80 POWER

Engine 75hp / 55.9kW

ENGINE DETAIL

The Deutz-Fahr DX 80 features a robust 4-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 4.1L, delivering 75hp at a rated RPM of 2300, making it suitable for medium-duty agricultural applications. The 3.94x4.84 inches bore and stroke ratio indicate a focus on torque delivery, advantageous for pulling heavy loads but may lead to increased fuel consumption at high RPMs. While its power output is suitable for tasks like plowing or hauling, operators should monitor maintenance regularly to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the engine.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Deutz-Fahr DX 80 tractor features a 15-speed transmission option, allowing for versatile speed selection tailored for various agricultural tasks, while the 18-speed variant provides enhanced precision in power management and improved fuel efficiency. The extra gears in the 18-speed transmission enable operators to maintain optimal RPM for better performance on variable terrains. However, the added complexity of the 18-speed may result in increased maintenance requirements and a steeper learning curve for operators.

TRANSMISSION 1

The Deutz-Fahr DX 80 tractor features a 15 forward and 5 reverse gear configuration, which provides versatile speed options for various agricultural tasks. This transmission system allows for smooth torque management and efficient operation in both forward and reverse, making it suitable for intensive fieldwork and maneuvering in tight spaces. However, the gear range may require skilled operation to optimize performance, particularly in heavy-duty applications.

Gears 15 forward and 5 reverse

TRANSMISSION 2

The Deutz-Fahr DX 80 features an 18-speed forward and 6-speed reverse transmission, allowing for precise speed control and improved maneuverability, which is advantageous in varied agricultural tasks. This wide range of gears can enhance efficiency during operation, but it may present a learning curve for operators unfamiliar with multi-speed systems. In applications like plowing or hauling, the ability to quickly shift gears can optimize performance and reduce fuel consumption.

Gears 18 forward and 6 reverse

MECHANICAL

The Deutz-Fahr DX 80 tractor offers versatile drivetrain configurations with optional 4WD, enhancing traction on varied terrains, ideal for agricultural tasks on uneven fields. The 15-speed and 18-speed transmission options provide a broad range of gear ratios, allowing for efficient speed control and power management, optimizing performance for both heavy tillage and lighter operations. However, the 2WD configuration may limit capability in wet or muddy conditions compared to the 4WD model.

DEUTZ-FAHR DX 80 TIRES

The Deutz-Fahr DX 80’s 4WD configuration with Ag front tires (10.00-16/13.6R24) and rear tires (18.4R34) enhances traction and stability, making it ideal for diverse agricultural tasks, particularly in challenging terrain. The larger rear tire size provides improved flotation and weight distribution, which is beneficial for heavier equipment attachment and soil conservation. However, operators should be mindful of the turning radius due to the size differential, which could limit maneuverability in tighter spaces.
