ENGINE DETAIL
The Huber 12-25 Light Four tractor features a Waukesha kerosene engine with a displacement of 366 ci (6.0 L) and a bore/stroke ratio of 4.50x5.75 inches, which allows for higher torque output at lower RPMs, making it suitable for heavy-duty tasks. Its liquid-cooled system enhances thermal management, promoting longevity and reliability during extensive use. However, operating at a rated RPM of only 1000 may limit speed, making it best suited for slower agricultural applications rather than high-speed tasks.

TRANSMISSION
The Huber 12-25 Light Four tractor features a simple gear type with two forward and one reverse gear, which may limit its versatility in varied terrains but offers ease of operation for straightforward tasks. The compact gear configuration can provide reliability and straightforward maintenance; however, the limited range may challenge performance in more demanding scenarios such as steep inclines or heavy pulls. Consider this model for light agricultural applications where simplicity and reliability are paramount, but be cautious of its limitations in more complex farming tasks.

MECHANICAL
The Huber 12-25 Light Four features a 4x2 2WD chassis, providing basic maneuverability but limiting traction on uneven terrain, making it ideal for flat, stable fields. Its manual steering enhances driver control but may require more physical effort, especially in tight turns. The 2-speed gear transmission allows for flexibility in speed management, though it may lack the versatility of modern multi-speed systems for diverse agricultural tasks.
