JOHN DEERE 1247 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The John Deere 1247 tractor, powered by a Lombardini LDW 1603 diesel engine, delivers 37hp at 2800 RPM, optimized for light to medium-duty tasks. Its torque peak of 76 lb-ft at 1650 RPM provides strong low-end power, making it efficient for pulling and lifting applications. The dry air cleaner enhances durability in dusty environments, but may require more frequent maintenance compared to oil-bath systems, which could be a challenge in certain scenarios.

TRANSMISSION
The John Deere 1247 features a synchronized transmission with 12 forward and reverse gears, allowing for smooth gear transitions and versatility in various operating conditions. The mechanical dry disc clutch, measuring 228mm, provides reliability and durability, although it may require more effort in engagement compared to hydraulic systems. This setup is ideal for tasks requiring precise control, such as maneuvering on uneven terrain or within tight spaces, while potentially increasing operator fatigue during prolonged use.
