ENGINE DETAIL

The Long 445 tractor features a robust 3-cylinder diesel engine with a liquid-cooled system, offering 45 hp at a rated RPM of 2400, making it suitable for moderate agricultural tasks. Its direct injection fuel system and high compression ratio (17:1) enhance fuel efficiency and power output, presenting an advantage for operations requiring prolonged use. However, the relatively smaller displacement (2.3 L) may limit its performance in heavy-duty applications; optimal for landscape maintenance or smaller fieldwork scenarios.

TRANSMISSION

The Long 445 tractor features a 6-speed forward and 2-speed reverse gear system, which allows for versatile speed adjustments suitable for various agricultural tasks. The 254mm dry disc clutch provides efficient power transfer but may require more maintenance compared to wet clutches, particularly in heavy load scenarios. Additionally, with an oil capacity of 18 quarts (17.0 L), regular oil changes are crucial to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.
