ENGINE DETAIL
The Hart-Parr Crop Maker 17-27 features a robust 567.5 ci kerosene 1-cylinder engine, providing significant torque for plowing and heavy-duty agricultural tasks. Its large bore and stroke dimensions (8.50x10.00 inches) promote effective combustion, but the low rated RPM of 500 could limit its speed and responsiveness in certain applications. With an ample coolant capacity of 80 quarts, it ensures efficient thermal management, essential for long operating hours in demanding conditions.

HART-PARR CROP MAKER 17-27 ENGINE
The Hart-Parr Crop Maker 17-27, with its robust 9.3L single-cylinder kerosene engine, delivers a unique power profile suited for agricultural tasks. The 20-gallon (75.7L) fuel tank provides extended operational capacity, which can enhance productivity in the field, but the reliance on kerosene may pose challenges in fuel availability and efficiency compared to modern diesel engines. This tractor is ideal for tasks requiring sustained power over longer durations, but operators should prepare for potential fuel sourcing issues.

TRANSMISSION
The Hart-Parr Crop Maker 17-27 features a simple gear transmission system with 2 forward gears and 1 reverse gear, optimizing it for straightforward agricultural tasks. This limited gear selection enhances reliability and ease of operation but may restrict speed and torque adjustments in varied field conditions. Its design is optimal for small to medium-sized farms where maneuverability and ease of maintenance are prioritized over advanced transmission capabilities.

MECHANICAL
The Hart-Parr Crop Maker 17-27 features a 4x2 two-wheel drive chassis, which offers simplicity and lower maintenance costs but may struggle with traction in challenging terrain. The 2-speed transmission allows for flexibility in operation speed, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks, though it limits the ability to finely tune power delivery compared to modern multi-range transmissions. While this tractor is robust for lighter farming operations, its limitations in traction and transmission options may not meet the needs of heavy-duty applications.
