ENGINE DETAIL 1
The John Deere 630 features a reliable gasoline 2-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine with a displacement of 302.9 ci (5.0L) and a bore/stroke ratio of 5.50x6.375 inches, providing an optimal balance between torque and horsepower for agricultural tasks. Operating at a rated RPM of 1125, this tractor is suitable for pulling heavy loads in low-speed applications, although it may not be ideal for higher-speed operations due to lower RPM capabilities. Key maintenance factors include its oil capacity of 8 quarts and coolant capacity of 26 quarts, which support consistent performance and heat management in diverse operating conditions.

ENGINE DETAIL 2
The John Deere 630 features a robust 2-cylinder, all-fuel engine with a displacement of 302.9 cubic inches (5.0L), providing sufficient torque for various agricultural tasks. Its bore and stroke dimensions (5.50x6.375 inches) contribute to high efficiency and effective power delivery at a rated RPM of 1,125. However, maintenance may be more intensive due to the relatively small oil capacity of 8 quarts (7.6L), so operators should ensure regular oil checks to maintain optimal engine performance.
