TRANSMISSION 1
The International Harvester 276 tractor features an 8 forward and 2 reverse gear transmission, with four gears available in each of the two ranges. This enables versatile speed and power management, allowing for efficient operation in varying field conditions. However, the limited gear selection may challenge operators needing precise speed control in specialized tasks.

TRANSMISSION 2
The International Harvester 276 features a versatile transmission with multiple gear ranges (L1-H4, LR, HR), providing a total of 12 speeds for optimal performance across various tasks. This wide range enables efficient operation in both low-torque applications (e.g., tilling) and high-speed transport scenarios. However, complexity in shifting may pose a learning curve for operators, potentially impacting productivity during initial usage.

MECHANICAL
The International Harvester 276 features a 4x2 2WD chassis, providing straightforward maneuverability in flat terrains. Its mechanical rear differential lock enhances traction, making it suitable for tasks requiring improved grip, though manual steering may limit precision steering under heavy load scenarios. With an 8-speed transmission, operators can efficiently adapt to varying field conditions; however, the open operator station may expose the operator to weather and debris.

INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER 276 TIRES
The International Harvester 276 tractor features variable rear tire options, providing versatility for different terrains and load capacities, critical for optimizing traction and stability. The front 4.00-19 tires offer a narrower profile, which may enhance maneuverability in tight spaces but could compromise weight distribution on softer soils. It's well-suited for moderate agricultural tasks, although users should consider tire selection carefully based on specific applications and soil conditions to avoid performance limitations.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The International Harvester 276 tractor features a relatively short wheelbase of 76.4 inches, providing enhanced maneuverability in tight agricultural spaces, but may compromise stability on uneven terrain. Weighing 4189 lbs, its robust structure allows it to handle heavy implements effectively, though this weight can limit transportability. The tire specifications, with front tires at 6.00-16 and rear tires at 12-28, suggest a balanced configuration for power transfer and traction, ideal for diverse farming tasks but may require careful consideration of soil conditions to prevent compaction.
