TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Fiat 45-76 tractor features a 12-speed partially synchronized mechanical shuttle, enhancing operator control during direction changes and minimizing transmission wear. The 20-speed creeper gear option allows for optimal torque management in low-speed operations, making it ideal for tasks such as tilling or planting in tight spaces. However, the complexity of the transmission may require more thorough maintenance and operator training to fully utilize its capabilities.

TRANSMISSION 1

The Fiat 45-76 tractor features a partially synchronized gearbox with 12 forward and 4 reverse gears, allowing for versatile operation across different terrains, though shifting ranges requires the tractor to be stopped. The 254mm dry disc clutch ensures reliable engagement, but its need for stopping to change ranges may limit responsiveness in dynamic field conditions. Advantageously, this setup enhances control during heavy-load operations, but the limitation could pose challenges in high-speed or hilly scenarios, necessitating careful management by the operator.

Type partially synchronized
Gears 12 forward and 4 reverse
Clutch 254mm dry disc
Description Four synchronized gears (1-4) in three ranges (I-III) plus reverse range. Tractor must be stopped, and clutch used, to shift range

TRANSMISSION 2

The Fiat 45-76 tractor features a mechanical shuttle with 12 forward and reverse gears, providing versatility for various agricultural tasks. The dry disc clutch (254mm) is reliable but may require more maintenance compared to wet clutches, particularly under heavy use. This setup is advantageous for tasks requiring frequent directional changes, but operators should be aware of potential wear on the clutch and gears in demanding conditions.

TRANSMISSION 3

The Fiat 45-76 tractor features a creeper transmission, offering an extended gearing range with 20 forward and 8 reverse gears, which enhances versatility in various field operations, especially for tasks requiring low-speed control like planting or tilling. The 254mm dry disc clutch allows for efficient power transfer, but may present challenges in high-load scenarios due to potential slippage. This configuration is ideal for farmers needing precision in slow, controlled movements while maintaining the ability to operate at higher speeds when necessary.

MECHANICAL

The Fiat 45-76 features a versatile chassis with options for both 2WD and 4WD, allowing adaptability to terrain, which is beneficial for various agricultural applications. With mechanical rear differential lock and planetary final drives, it provides enhanced traction and stability in challenging conditions, although 2WD may perform less effectively on uneven ground. The 12-speed transmissions, particularly the 20-speed creeper option, enable precise speed control for tasks like tilling, making it ideal for intricate farming activities.
