ENGINE DETAIL

The Iseki TU145 is powered by a Mitsubishi K3B diesel engine, providing a compact 14.3 hp at a rated 2500 RPM, making it suitable for small-scale agricultural tasks and light-duty operations. Its 0.8L displacement and liquid-cooled system enhance engine reliability and thermal management, ideal for prolonged use in moderate climates. However, its limited horsepower may restrict performance in demanding applications, making it less suitable for heavy equipment or large land areas.

ISEKI TU145 ENGINE

The Iseki TU145 is equipped with a Mitsubishi 0.8L 3-cylinder diesel engine, providing efficient power for small-scale agricultural tasks. Its 4-gallon (15.1 L) fuel tank offers sufficient range for extended operations without frequent refueling, ideal for compact farming scenarios. However, the engine's limited displacement may pose challenges in heavy-duty applications or when using large implements.

TRANSMISSION

The Iseki TU145 features a gear transmission with 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, providing versatility for various agricultural tasks. The gear type allows for straightforward maintenance but may lack the smoothness of a hydrostatic transmission, which could impact user comfort during prolonged use. It is well-suited for smaller farms requiring reliable performance in maneuvering through tight spaces.

MECHANICAL

The Iseki TU145 tractor features a versatile 4x2 2WD or 4x4 MFWD drivetrain, offering flexibility for various terrains; however, the lack of a cab may expose the operator to environmental elements, which can affect comfort during extended use. With a 6-speed gear transmission, it allows for efficient power management and optimized speed control tailored to different agricultural tasks. This configuration is particularly beneficial for small to medium-sized farms, where maneuverability and ease of operation are paramount, but it may not be ideal for operations requiring a fully enclosed cabin for adverse weather conditions.

ISEKI TU145 TIRES

The Iseki TU145 tractor offers both 2WD and 4WD configurations, providing versatility for various agricultural applications. The 2WD version, equipped with standard agricultural tires, is suitable for flat terrains, while the 4WD version enhances traction on uneven ground and during heavy tillage tasks, albeit with increased fuel consumption. Key considerations include potential tire wear patterns due to load distribution and the need for appropriate tire pressure maintenance to ensure optimal performance and efficiency.

2WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 4.50-10. Rear: 8-16
4WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 5.00-12. Rear: 8-16
