ENGINE DETAIL
The Fiat-Hesston 65-46 features a robust 4-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine with a displacement of 3.6L, delivering 65hp, making it suitable for moderate agricultural tasks. The use of an electric starter system at 12 volts enhances reliability and ease of operation in varied conditions. While its power is adequate for light to medium-duty applications, it may face challenges in heavy-duty scenarios or on steep terrain due to its lower horsepower compared to larger tractors.

TRANSMISSION
The Fiat-Hesston 65-46 tractor features an 8-speed forward and 2-speed reverse transmission, providing operators with versatility for various field conditions and operational tasks. The wider gear range allows for enhanced control in both low and high-speed applications, making it suitable for tasks like plowing or transport. However, the limited reverse options may pose challenges in maneuverability during tight space operations.

8 forward and 2 reverse |
MECHANICAL
The Fiat-Hesston 65-46 features a 4x2 2WD chassis, ideal for flat terrain and lighter agricultural tasks but may struggle with stability on slopes or in muddy conditions. Its 8-speed transmission allows for versatile speed control, enhancing operational efficiency but could demand more skill from the operator to manage gear changes effectively. The inclusion of a four-post ROPS enhances operator safety, making it a viable option for users prioritizing both productivity and safety in open-field applications.

HESSTON 65-46 TIRES
The Fiat-Hesston 65-46 tractor features AG front tires sized 7.50-16 and AG rear tires at 16.9-28, optimizing stability and traction in agricultural applications. This tire configuration provides a low center of gravity and efficient weight distribution, enhancing performance in muddy or uneven terrain. However, the relatively narrow front tires may limit steering precision under heavy loads, necessitating careful maneuvering in tight spaces.
