MECHANICAL

The J.I. Case 801-B tractor features a two-wheel drive system, which can enhance fuel efficiency but may limit traction on uneven terrain. The mechanical disc brakes provide reliable stopping power, though they may require more maintenance compared to hydraulic systems. The open operator station offers visibility and ease of entry, but exposes the operator to elements, making it less ideal for harsh weather conditions.
