TRANSMISSION
The Erkunt Kismet 55E tractor features a mechanical shuttle transmission with 8 total gears (4 forward and 4 reverse) across two ranges, enhancing versatility in various agricultural tasks. The left-hand shuttle provides efficient direction changes, allowing for seamless operation during operations such as plowing or transporting materials. However, the mechanical shuttle may offer less precision compared to hydraulic systems, which could impact user experience during more delicate tasks.

MECHANICAL
The Erkunt Kismet 55E tractor features a robust 4x4 MFWD option, enhancing traction on varied terrains, which is beneficial for applications in agriculture where soil conditions may change. Its 8-speed mechanical shuttle transmission allows for precise speed control, improving maneuverability during field work and transport. However, the two-post folding ROPS may limit operator protection compared to a fully enclosed cab, posing potential safety concerns in hazardous environments.

ERKUNT KISMET 55E TIRES
The Erkunt Kismet 55E tractor, available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations, offers versatile performance for various agricultural tasks. In 2WD, standard agricultural tires (5.50-16 front and 13.6-24 rear) provide good traction on firm soils, but may struggle in muddy conditions. The 4WD variant, featuring wider tires (280/70R16 front and 13.6x28 rear), enhances stability and traction, making it more suitable for challenging terrains and sloped fields.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Erkunt Kismet 55E tractor offers a compact 2WD wheelbase of 76.7 inches, enhancing maneuverability in tight spaces, while the 4WD configuration extends this to 81.1 inches for improved traction on varied terrain. Weighing between 4630 to 5027 pounds, it provides stability during operation, but this can also limit its ability to traverse very soft or loose soil without getting bogged down. The tire specifications, particularly the 13.6-24 rear tires, suggest suitability for moderate field work, though operators should consider potential flotation issues in wet conditions.
