ENGINE DETAIL
The IMT 555 tractor's 3.3 L, 4-cylinder diesel engine delivers 50 hp at a rated RPM of 2000, providing adequate power for medium-duty agricultural tasks. Its torque peak of 141 lb-ft at 1300 RPM ensures strong low-speed performance, essential for tasks like plowing or tilling. However, with a compression ratio of 17.4:1, careful maintenance of fuel quality and cooling system is crucial to avoid potential overheating or pre-ignition issues during extended operations.

IMT 555 ENGINE
The IMT 555 tractor is powered by a 3.3L 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing a balance of efficiency and power suitable for diverse agricultural tasks. Its fuel tank capacity ranges from 11.9 gallons (45.0 liters) to 14.5 gallons (54.9 liters), allowing for extended operation without frequent refueling, which is advantageous during long field work or when servicing larger areas. However, the single fuel tank size may limit operational flexibility in high-demand scenarios, necessitating careful planning of fuel management.

TRANSMISSION
The IMT 555 tractor features a gear type transmission with 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, allowing for versatile speed control and adaptability in various agricultural tasks. This setup can enhance operational efficiency, especially in tasks requiring different speeds like plowing or hauling. However, the limited number of reverse gears may pose a challenge in tight maneuverability scenarios, requiring careful planning during operation.

MECHANICAL
The IMT 555 tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, making it suitable for lighter tasks and more maneuverability on flat terrains, but it may struggle in adverse conditions like wet or hilly environments. The manual steering system offers simplicity and ease of maintenance, but it requires more physical effort compared to power steering options, especially during prolonged use. With a 6-speed gear transmission, the machine allows for flexibility in speed control, aiding in precise handling when performing various agricultural tasks.
