ENGINE DETAIL
The Eagle Manufacturing D 16-30 tractor features a robust 2-cylinder, 4-valve liquid-cooled engine with a significant displacement of 804 ci (13.2 L), delivering sufficient torque for agricultural tasks. The Linga carburetor provides effective fuel delivery, but the hand-crank starter may pose a challenge in cold conditions or for less experienced operators. This tractor is well-suited for tasks requiring high power output and reliability, albeit with a more manual operating experience due to its starter design.

EAGLE MANUFACTURING D 16-30 ENGINE
The Eagle Manufacturing D 16-30 tractor, powered by a 13.2L 2-cylinder kerosene engine, offers substantial torque for heavy-duty applications, making it suitable for farming and industrial tasks. Its kerosene fuel type provides cleaner combustion compared to diesel, but may present challenges in cold weather performance and fuel availability. Prospective users should consider fuel compatibility and maintenance requirements, particularly the engine’s leaded vs. unleaded fuel specifications.

TRANSMISSION
The Eagle Manufacturing D 16-30 tractor features a simple gear transmission with 2 forward and 1 reverse gear, which provides basic operational control, ideal for light agricultural tasks. However, this limited gear selection may present challenges in navigating varied terrain or heavy-duty applications, where more gears could enhance versatility and efficiency. In scenarios requiring quick directional changes or variable speed adjustments, operators may find the single reverse gear restrictive.

MECHANICAL
The Eagle Manufacturing D 16-30 features a 4x2 2WD chassis, which offers simplicity and ease of maintenance, but may limit traction on uneven terrain. Its manual steering system provides direct feedback but can be physically challenging during extended operation, especially in tight spaces. With a 2-speed gear transmission, it’s suitable for basic agricultural tasks, though the lack of more advanced speeds may hinder versatility compared to modern tractors.

EAGLE MANUFACTURING D 16-30 TIRES
The Eagle Manufacturing D 16-30 tractor features a robust rear axle setup with 52x12 steel wheels, enhancing durability and traction on varied terrains. The steel construction provides added weight for stability but may result in reduced flexibility compared to rubber counterparts. Ideal for heavy-duty agricultural tasks, operators should consider potential challenges in maneuverability on softer ground.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Eagle Manufacturing D 16-30 tractor features rear tires sized 52x12, providing enhanced traction and stability, particularly on soft or uneven terrain. This tire configuration can improve weight distribution and reduce soil compaction, making it advantageous for agricultural tasks. However, operators should ensure that the tractor's power rating and weight are compatible with the tire size to avoid potential strain on the drivetrain.
