TRANSMISSION 1
The Iseki TM3240 tractor features a 6-speed forward and 2-speed reverse transmission, providing versatility for various agricultural tasks but limiting speed modulation in certain scenarios. With an oil capacity of 14.8 quarts (14.0 liters), routine maintenance and oil changes are relatively straightforward, ensuring optimal engine performance. However, users should monitor oil levels meticulously, as insufficient lubrication can lead to significant mechanical failures.
| Gears | 6 forward and 2 reverse |
| Oil capacity | 14.8qts / 14.0L |
TRANSMISSION 2
The Iseki TM3240 features a hydrostatic transmission, providing infinite forward and reverse speeds which enhances maneuverability and ease of operation, particularly in tight spaces. With an oil capacity of 14.8 quarts (14.0 liters), it allows for efficient thermal regulation and lubrication, crucial for maintaining optimal engine performance during prolonged use. An advantage of the hydrostatic design is seamless speed control; however, it may present challenges in terms of power loss during heavy-duty applications compared to traditional gear systems.
