ENGINE OIL
The GBT-2000 tractor features an oil capacity of 3 quarts (2.8 liters), facilitating effective lubrication for its engine and components, which can influence long-term performance. Maintaining the oil change interval at every 50 hours is crucial to avoid potential engine wear and ensure optimal operation under heavy load conditions. Neglecting this maintenance can lead to reduced efficiency and increased risk of failure, particularly in demanding agricultural scenarios.
