DIMENSIONS
DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Fiat-Hesston 640 tractor, weighing 4,730 lbs (2,145 kg), offers a low weight-to-power ratio potentially enhancing maneuverability in tight spaces and reducing soil compaction. The tire specifications, featuring a narrower front tire (7.50-16) and wider rear tire (14.9-30), facilitate better traction and stability during field operations, which is advantageous for diverse farming tasks. However, the limited tire width options may pose challenges in particularly rugged terrains or heavy-load applications, necessitating careful consideration of use scenarios.
