DONGFENG DF-250 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Dongfeng DF-250, powered by a Y385T 3-cylinder diesel engine, offers a displacement of 1.5L and a robust compression ratio of 22:1, delivering 25 hp at 2400 RPM. Its liquid-cooled system effectively manages operating temperatures, optimizing engine performance and lifespan. While suitable for light to moderate agricultural tasks, the relatively low power may limit its ability to handle heavy-duty applications, making it ideal for small farms or as a secondary tractor for specific tasks.

DONGFENG DF-250 TIRES
The Dongfeng DF-250 offers versatile tire configurations for agriculture, turf, and industrial applications, enhancing its adaptability to various environments. The Ag rear tires (8.3-24/9.5-24) provide excellent traction for field work, while the turf tires (11.2x24) minimize soil compaction for lawn maintenance, making it suitable for landscaping scenarios. However, the limited industrial tire options may restrict performance in heavy-duty applications, suggesting a need for careful evaluation based on intended use.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Dongfeng DF-250 tractor features a compact wheelbase of 59.6 inches (151 cm), enhancing maneuverability in tight spaces, ideal for small to medium-sized farms. Weighing 2,293 lbs (1,040 kg), its stability during operation may be advantageous for tasks like tilling or hauling, but could pose challenges on soft or uneven terrain where ground pressure becomes an issue. The tire sizes (front: 4.00-16, rear: 8.3-24) suggest suitable traction and flotation, but careful consideration must be given to tire selection based on soil conditions to optimize performance.
