TRANSMISSION
The Limb 80 tractor's extensive 24 forward and reverse gear setup offers exceptional versatility, allowing precise speed and torque management for diverse agricultural tasks. This feature is advantageous for applications requiring fine control in both forward operation and delicate reverse maneuvers. However, the complexity of the gearbox may lead to a steeper learning curve for operators unfamiliar with multi-gear systems, potentially increasing training time and maintenance considerations.

MECHANICAL
The Limb 80 tractor features a robust 4x4 MFWD (Mechanical Front-Wheel Drive) chassis, enhancing traction and stability in diverse terrains, making it ideal for agricultural applications on uneven fields. Its 24-speed transmission offers excellent operational flexibility, enabling operators to efficiently manage various tasks ranging from heavy tillage to precise planting. While the standard heating in the cab ensures comfort in colder climates, the optional air-conditioning is beneficial for extended operations in warmer conditions, although it may add to maintenance complexity.

LIMB 80 TIRES
The Limb 80 tractor features an agricultural front tire size of 320/70R24 and a rear tire size of 18.4R30, promoting stability and load-bearing capacity. The larger rear tires offer improved traction and flotation over varied terrain, which is advantageous in soft soil conditions. However, the mismatched tire sizing may lead to challenges in handling and an uneven wear pattern, necessitating regular maintenance and potential tire replacement strategies.
