ENGINE DETAIL

The Iseki TA550 tractor, powered by the Isuzu 4JB1 diesel engine, offers a robust 52.3 hp at a rated RPM of 2500, which suits agricultural tasks requiring moderate power output. With a torque peak of 122.9 lb-ft at 1600 RPM, this model excels in applications needing strong low-end performance, making it effective for operations like plowing and towing. However, the engine's relatively low RPM may limit its versatility for higher-speed applications; thus, it’s ideal for small to medium-sized farms focused on specific tasks rather than broad versatility.

TRANSMISSION

The Iseki TA550 features a synchronized shuttle transmission with a total of 16 forward and reverse gears, providing excellent versatility in various operating conditions. The four ranges, combined with the synchronized shuttle, allow for smooth gear transitions, enhancing operator efficiency and control, particularly in applications requiring frequent directional changes, such as loader work. However, the complexity of the transmission may pose a challenge for novice operators, requiring a learning curve to master gear selection for optimal performance.

ISEKI TA550 TIRES

The Iseki TA550 offers both 2WD and 4WD configurations, with the 2WD model equipped with narrower front tires (7.5x16) compared to the 4WD version (8.3x20), enhancing its traction on diverse terrains. With standardized rear tires of 14.9x28 across both configurations, it provides stability, but the 4WD option excels in challenging conditions, such as wet or uneven ground, offering better maneuverability and power distribution. Overall, choosing between 2WD and 4WD depends on your specific application needs, with 4WD being preferable for agricultural tasks requiring enhanced traction.
