ENGINE DETAIL
The Iseki TU257 features an Isuzu E3AD1 diesel engine, providing a compact yet powerful output of 24.7 hp at a rated RPM of 2500, making it suitable for small to medium agricultural tasks. With a displacement of 1.5L and an optimal coolant capacity, this tractor demonstrates efficient thermal management, though its limited oil capacity of 4.5 quarts could necessitate more frequent maintenance checks in heavy-use scenarios. Electric starting adds convenience, but operators should ensure battery reliability, particularly in cold weather conditions where cold cranking may be challenged.

ISEKI TU257 TRANSMISSION
The Iseki TU257 features a 12-speed transmission, which provides enhanced versatility for various agricultural tasks, allowing operators to select optimal gear ratios for both low-end torque and high-speed travel. This broad range of speeds can improve fuel efficiency and increase productivity in field operations. However, operators may need additional training to master the performance characteristics of the 12-speed system effectively.
MECHANICAL
The Iseki TU257 tractor features both two- and four-wheel drive options, providing versatility in various traction conditions, which is advantageous for diverse agricultural tasks. Its open operator station enhances operator comfort and visibility but may expose the operator to environmental elements. When considering use in uneven terrains or challenging weather, opting for the four-wheel drive variant could significantly improve stability and control.

ISEKI TU257 TIRES
The Iseki TU257 tractor features a 2WD configuration with narrower front tires (5.00-15) and wider rear tires (11.2-24), providing adequate traction in light agricultural tasks. In contrast, the 4WD variant employs wider front tires (7-16) alongside the same rear tires, enhancing stability and traction for more challenging terrains or heavy tillage operations. The choice between 2WD and 4WD ultimately hinges on the intended application, with 4WD suitable for diverse and rugged conditions but potentially increasing maintenance complexity and cost.
