ENGINE DETAIL

The Iseki TU1700 tractor, powered by an Isuzu 3AF1 diesel engine, delivers a modest 16.8hp at 2300 RPM, with a notable torque output of 43.4 lb-ft at 1400 RPM, making it suitable for light agricultural tasks and smaller-scale applications. Its compact displacement of 1.2L and efficient cooling system (7.4 quarts) enhance reliability and longevity, although its lower power rating may limit performance under heavy loads. Key advantages include ease of starting due to the electric starter and manageable oil capacity (3.2 quarts), which simplifies maintenance in compact settings.

ISEKI TU1700 ENGINE

The Iseki TU1700 features a compact Isuzu 1.2L 3-cylinder diesel engine, promoting fuel efficiency and reliability in small-scale agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 5.8 gallons (22.0 liters), it offers a balance of operational time between refueling, ideal for moderate land cultivation. However, its limited power output may challenge performance in heavy-duty applications or on steep terrains.

TRANSMISSION

The Iseki TU1700 features a 12 forward and 4 reverse gear system, providing versatility for various agricultural tasks and optimal control over speed and torque. With an oil capacity of 18 quarts (17.0L), maintenance intervals can be effectively managed, though operators must ensure regular checks to prevent overheating or inadequate lubrication. The two-range gear setup allows for smooth transitions between high-torque and high-speed applications, making it suitable for both heavy-duty plowing and lighter tasks.

MECHANICAL

The Iseki TU1700 features a 4x4 MFWD system, which enhances traction and stability on uneven terrain, making it suitable for diverse agricultural applications. Its 12-speed gear transmission allows for optimized speed control and maneuverability, though it may require additional operator skill for efficient gear management. The open operator station provides good visibility but exposes the operator to environmental elements, which can be a challenge in harsh weather conditions.

ISEKI TU1700 TIRES

The Iseki TU1700 tractor's 2WD configuration, equipped with smaller front tires (4.00-12), may offer better maneuverability in tight spaces but may limit traction on softer terrains compared to the 4WD variant with larger front tires (6-12), improving overall grip and stability. The rear tire size (8.3-22) remains consistent across both configurations, ensuring sufficient power transfer during heavy-duty tasks. Users should consider the 2WD for lighter applications and the 4WD for increased versatility and performance in varied agricultural conditions.
