ENGINE OIL

The Iseki TU147 tractor features a compact oil capacity of 2.9 quarts (2.7 liters), which necessitates regular oil checks and timely oil changes to maintain optimal engine performance. This smaller capacity can be advantageous for lighter operations and ease of maintenance but may require more frequent monitoring under heavy use conditions. Ensure to use the manufacturer's recommended oil type to avoid potential engine wear and operational inefficiencies.

ISEKI TU147 ENGINE

The Iseki TU147 is powered by a fuel-efficient Mitsubishi 0.8L 3-cylinder diesel engine, ideal for small to medium agricultural tasks. With a 4.2-gallon (15.9L) fuel tank, it provides a good balance of operating time and compact design, making it suitable for tight spaces and small farms. However, limited horsepower might pose challenges for heavy-duty applications, so it's best suited for light-duty towing and tilling tasks.

TRANSMISSION

The Iseki TU147 features a simple yet effective 6 forward and 2 reverse gear configuration, providing versatility for different agricultural tasks. Its oil capacity of 12.7 quarts (12.0L) ensures adequate lubrication and cooling for extended use, but regular maintenance is vital to prevent overheating and enhance longevity. This gear setup is advantageous for maneuverability in tight spaces but may lack the advanced features of modern tractors for heavy-duty applications.

MECHANICAL

The Iseki TU147 tractor features a versatile chassis with options for both 2WD and 4WD configurations, enhancing its adaptability for different terrains and tasks. The open operator station provides ease of access and visibility but may expose the operator to environmental elements. Its 6-speed gear transmission allows for a smooth range of gear selection, optimizing performance for varied agricultural operations, though it may require operators to adjust to gear changes in challenging conditions.

ISEKI TU147 TIRES

The Iseki TU147 offers both 2WD and 4WD options, enabling versatility for various agricultural applications. The 2WD configuration with lighter front tires (4.50-10) provides stability on flat terrain, while 4WD enhances traction and maneuverability in uneven fields, especially with the larger front tires (5.00-12). When considering tire size, the uniform rear tire (8-16) across both configurations allows for easier replacement and maintenance, but may limit flotation in muddy conditions when using the 2WD variant.

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