ENGINE DETAIL

The Ford 1310 tractor is powered by a Shibaura S753 3-cylinder diesel engine, notable for its compact displacement of 1.0L, providing a robust torque of 39 lb-ft at 1800 RPM, ideal for efficient low-end power delivery during varied field operations. With a compression ratio of 23:1, it offers excellent thermal efficiency; however, the engine's dry air cleaner may necessitate more frequent maintenance in dusty environments. The system's pre-heating glow plugs enhance cold-weather performance, making it suitable for diverse agricultural applications, albeit with a limited oil capacity of 4 quarts that requires regular monitoring to maintain optimal engine health.

FORD 1310 ENGINE

The Ford 1310 tractor is powered by a Shibaura 1.0L 3-cylinder diesel engine, offering efficient fuel consumption and longevity typical of diesel powertrains. Its compact size makes it ideal for small farms or limited space applications, but the smaller engine may struggle with heavy-duty tasks without proper gear selection. Advantages include excellent maneuverability and lower operating costs, while potential challenges include limited power output for larger implements or extensive land management tasks.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Ford 1310 tractor features a 12-speed partially synchronized transmission, allowing for smoother shifting between gears compared to an unsynchronized system, which can lead to improved operator efficiency during variable terrain operations. This transmission setup provides a balance between performance and control, particularly beneficial in agricultural applications where precise speed management is crucial. However, operators may still need to match speeds during gear changes, which could pose a challenge in high-stress situations or for less experienced users.

TRANSMISSION 1

The Ford 1310 tractor features an unsynchronized gear transmission with 12 forward and 4 reverse speeds, providing versatility for various applications. Its 216mm dry disc clutch ensures reliable engagement but may require precise operation to avoid wear. With an oil capacity of 18 quarts (17.0L), routine maintenance is essential to prevent damage and maintain optimal performance in demanding tasks.

Description With 8.3-24 rear tires

TRANSMISSION 2

The Ford 1310 tractor features a partially synchronized gearbox with 12 forward and 4 reverse gears, allowing for flexibility and control in various field conditions. The partially synchronized design can facilitate smoother shifting, particularly under load; however, operators may still experience some difficulty in shifting between certain gears compared to fully synchronized systems. This tractor is advantageous in applications requiring variable speed and torque, such as tilling or hauling, but may not be ideal for high-speed transport tasks where quick gear changes are essential.

Gears 12 forward and 4 reverse

MECHANICAL

The Ford 1310 tractor offers versatility with both 2WD and 4WD configurations, enabling optimal performance across various terrains. Its mechanical rear differential lock enhances traction in challenging field conditions, though manual steering may require more effort during tight maneuvers. The 12-speed transmission, with both unsynchronized and partially synchronized options, provides a range of speed settings suited for diverse agricultural tasks, although shifting may demand careful timing to prevent gear grinding.
