HITACHI TZ280 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Hitachi TZ280 tractor features a diesel liquid-cooled engine with a displacement of 1.5L, delivering 27.6 hp at a rated RPM of 2600. This power output is suitable for light agricultural tasks, offering efficient fuel consumption in compact applications. However, the relatively low horsepower may limit its performance in heavier operations, making it ideal for small farms or gardening scenarios rather than larger agricultural landscapes.

TRANSMISSION
The Hitachi TZ280 features a hydrostatic transmission, providing seamless control with infinite forward and reverse gear options, enabling smooth operation and enhanced maneuverability, particularly in tight spaces. This system allows for precise speed adjustments without the need for shifting gears, which can improve efficiency in variable terrain scenarios. However, hydrostatic systems may have increased maintenance requirements and slightly lower overall efficiency compared to traditional gear transmissions in high-load applications.

MECHANICAL
The Hitachi TZ280 4WD tractor features a robust all-wheel-drive system, enhancing traction and stability across varied terrains, making it ideal for agricultural applications in diverse conditions. Its chassis design promotes durability and longevity, but potential challenges may include increased maintenance complexity due to the 4WD mechanism. Overall, this tractor excels in power delivery and handling, suitable for heavy-duty tasks in both farmland and construction sites.
HITACHI TZ280 TIRES
The Hitachi TZ280 tractor features an Ag front tire size of 7-14 and an Ag rear tire size of 11.2-24, providing a good balance for traction and stability in various agricultural applications. The narrower front tire aids in maneuverability, while the larger rear tires enhance load-bearing capacity and stability on uneven terrain. However, limited tire size options may restrict adaptability for specialized tasks such as heavy tillage or rocky landscapes.
