FAHR D17 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Fahr D17 tractor is powered by a Guldner 2D15 diesel engine with a modest displacement of 79.6 ci (1.3 L) and a two-cylinder configuration, offering 17 hp (12.7 kW). Its bore and stroke of 3.35x4.53 inches (85 x 115 mm) indicate a long-stroke design, potentially providing good torque for low-speed tasks, making it suitable for small farms or light-duty applications. However, its lower horsepower may limit its performance with larger implements and in demanding agricultural scenarios.

FAHR D17 ENGINE
The Fahr D17 tractor's Guldner 1.3L 2-cylinder diesel engine offers a compact design ideal for small to medium farming operations, emphasizing fuel efficiency and lower operating costs. However, its limited displacement may result in reduced power output for heavier tasks, making it less suitable for high-demand applications. Consider using the D17 for lighter, more maneuverable tasks like vineyards or small orchards where agility and efficiency are prioritized.

TRANSMISSION
The Fahr D17 tractor features a ZF A8C gear transmission with 5 forward and 1 reverse gear, allowing for precise control and optimal torque management across various field conditions. The 5-speed configuration can enhance operational efficiency, providing flexibility for different tasks, though it may pose challenges in terms of speed modulation compared to more advanced multi-range transmissions. Ideal for general farming applications, this setup is particularly advantageous for operations requiring frequent gear shifts in demanding terrains.

MECHANICAL
The Fahr D17 tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis which provides a simpler design with lower maintenance requirements, but may limit traction and stability on uneven terrain compared to 4WD systems. Its manual steering offers direct control, though it may require more effort during tight maneuvers, especially on inclines. Equipped with a 5-speed gear transmission, it allows for versatility in speed adjustment, facilitating various agricultural tasks, but could be less efficient for rapid changes in terrain conditions compared to automatic systems.
