ENGINE DETAIL
The Long 350 tractor features a robust 3-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 2.3 L, providing efficient fuel consumption and significant torque at lower RPMs, ideal for agricultural applications. Its bore/stroke ratio of 3.74x4.33 inches (95 x 110 mm) indicates a stroke-heavy design, which favors torque over high RPM performance—a distinct advantage for tasks requiring sustained power such as plowing. However, operating at a rated RPM of 2400 may limit maximum speed potential for transport tasks, making it less suited for long-distance travel.

LONG 350 ENGINE
The Long 350 tractor features a robust 2.3L 3-cylinder diesel engine, providing efficient fuel consumption and decent power output, suitable for moderate agricultural tasks. Its compact design enhances maneuverability in confined spaces while still supporting chassial robustness for heavy-duty work. However, the smaller engine displacement may limit its performance in more demanding applications, making it ideal for smaller farms or light-duty operations.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Long 350 tractor features a 6-speed partially synchronized transmission, offering a balance between ease of shifting and operational efficiency; this facilitates smooth gear changes during varying field conditions. The optional 9-speed configuration provides enhanced versatility and allows for better torque management, making it ideal for diverse agricultural tasks. Operators should consider potential challenges in mastering the shifted synchronization, particularly during rapid speed adjustments in changing environments.

TRANSMISSION 1
The Long 350 tractor features a partially synchronized transmission, allowing for smoother gear transitions between the 2nd and 3rd, as well as the 5th and 6th gears. This enhances operational efficiency, enabling quicker adjustments during field tasks while keeping gear selection straightforward with 6 forward and 2 reverse options. However, operators may still experience some challenges when shifting through non-synchronized gears, particularly under load, which necessitates proper technique to avoid potential damage.
| Type | partially synchronized |
| Gears | 6 forward and 2 reverse |
| Description | Synchronized shift between gears 2/3 and 5/6. |
TRANSMISSION 2
The Long 350 tractor features a 9-speed forward and 3-speed reverse transmission, which allows for versatile speed adjustments to match various agricultural tasks, enhancing productivity. However, the relatively limited reverse gear ratio may pose challenges in maneuvering in tight spaces or during field operations. This setup is ideal for medium-sized farms requiring a balance of speed and control, especially in row cropping or transport applications.
| Gears | 9 forward and 3 reverse |
MECHANICAL
The Long 350 tractor's 4x2 2WD chassis is suitable for basic agricultural tasks but may present traction challenges in muddy or hilly terrains. The optional power-assisted steering enhances maneuverability, beneficial for tight field conditions; however, the open operator station may expose the operator to the elements, impacting comfort and safety. With a 6-speed partially synchronized transmission, operators can enjoy moderate control, but the 9-speed option offers improved adaptability for varying field conditions or transport scenarios.

LONG 350 TIRES
The Long 350 tractor features a hook-up for agricultural implements, supported by a front tire size of 5.50-16, which provides good maneuverability and stability on uneven terrain. The rear tires, sized 12.4-28 or 13.6-28, offer enhanced traction and load-bearing capability, suitable for pulling heavy implements. However, the 350 model may face challenges in heavy-duty applications due to its lower horsepower compared to modern tractors, making it ideal for small to mid-sized farms with lighter tasks.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Long 350 tractor features a front tire size of 5.50-16 and a rear tire size of 12.4-28, offering a balanced weight distribution which enhances traction and stability on uneven terrains. The smaller front tires improve maneuverability, while the larger rear tires provide better power transfer and load-bearing capacity. Ideal for agricultural applications, this configuration helps in efficient tilling and transport tasks, though may present challenges in tight spaces due to its larger rear footprint.
