FORTSCHRITT ZT 320 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Fortschritt ZT 320 tractor features a robust 4-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 6.6L, delivering a power output of 98.6hp at 1800 RPM and impressive torque of 317.2 lb-ft at 1350 RPM, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications. Its large bore and stroke dimensions (120 x 145mm) suggest a focus on low-end torque, which can excel in tasks requiring sustained pulling power, such as plowing or towing. However, while this tractor's engine design offers durability and performance, the relatively low RPM operation may limit its high-speed applications, making it less versatile for fast transport tasks.

TRANSMISSION
The Fortschritt ZT 320 tractor features a 9-speed forward and 6-speed reverse transmission, allowing for versatile speed and torque management. This extensive gear range enhances maneuverability in various agricultural tasks, especially in tight spaces or while navigating uneven terrain. However, the complexity of the gear system may require skilled operators to optimize performance and reduce operational errors.

9 forward and 6 reverse |
MECHANICAL
The Fortschritt ZT 320 features a 2WD chassis, which provides adequate traction for lighter agricultural tasks but may struggle on uneven or muddy terrain compared to a 4WD system. Its 9-speed transmission allows for versatile speed adjustments, enabling optimized performance across varying field conditions but may require more skillful operation for effective gear management. Ideal for small to medium-sized farms, this tractor is suitable for tasks like plowing, tilling, and hauling lighter loads but may face limitations in heavy-duty applications.
