ENGINE DETAIL
The LS XR4046 features a Shibarua N844L-F diesel engine with a 2.2L displacement, delivering a gross power of 46hp at a rated RPM of 2600, which is suitable for medium-duty agricultural tasks. Its indirect injection fuel system enhances fuel efficiency and can provide better cold start performance, although this may lead to increased emissions compared to direct injection systems. Overall, this tractor is well-suited for small to mid-sized farming operations, balancing power and fuel economy, but operators should be aware of potential challenges with emissions compliance in certain regions.

LS XR4046 ENGINE
The LS XR4046 is equipped with a Shibarua 2.2L 4-cylinder diesel engine, which offers a balance of power and fuel efficiency, ideal for small to medium agricultural tasks. Its fuel tank capacity ranges from 10.5 gallons (39.7L) with ROPS to 12.4 gallons (46.9L) with a cab, providing flexibility in operation duration; however, the smaller tank could limit run time for larger tasks without refueling. Ideal for operations requiring maneuverability and moderate power, it excels in small crop applications but may face challenges with heavier implements due to its engine size.

TRANSMISSION
The LS XR4046 features a synchro shuttle transmission, allowing for smooth direction changes without clutching, which enhances operational efficiency during tasks such as loader work or field tillage. Its 16 forward and reverse gears provide a broad speed range and adaptability for various agricultural applications, optimizing performance based on terrain and crop type. However, operators should ensure familiarity with gear selection to maximize the benefits of the transmission system.

LS XR4046 TIRES
The LS XR4046 tractor offers versatile tire options with standard agricultural tires optimized for fieldwork, providing enhanced traction due to their size (Front: 9.5-16 and Rear: 13.6-24). For turf applications, lawn/turf tires (Front: 28x8.5-15 and Rear: 41x14-20) minimize lawn damage while maintaining stability, but may sacrifice off-road ability. Industrial tires (Front: 12-16.5 and Rear: 17.5L-24) offer durability and puncture resistance, making them ideal for construction or heavy-duty tasks, but might compromise ride comfort on softer terrains.
| Standard tires (ag) | Front: 9.5-16. Rear: 13.6-24 |
| Lawn/turf front | 28x8.5-15 |
| Lawn/turf rear | 41x14-20 |
