MAHINDRA 2638 ENGINE

The Mahindra 2638 features a robust 2.7L four-cylinder diesel engine, emphasizing fuel efficiency and reliability, suitable for moderate agricultural tasks. Its 9-gallon (34.1 L) fuel tank facilitates extended operation without frequent refueling, advantageous for larger acreage or prolonged projects. However, users may find the relatively modest power output requires careful consideration for heavy-duty tasks or steeper terrains.

TRANSMISSION

The Mahindra 2638 features a hydrostatic transmission, allowing for seamless speed adjustments and enhanced operator control, particularly beneficial in precision tasks like mowing or loader work. With its infinite (3-range) forward and reverse gears, it offers versatility for various applications, aiding in both productivity and maneuverability. However, hydrostatic systems may require more maintenance compared to gear-driven counterparts, which could impact long-term ownership costs.

MECHANICAL

The Mahindra 2638 features a 4x4 MFWD configuration, providing excellent traction and stability across varied terrains, ideal for farming and heavy-duty applications. Its hydrostatic transmission allows for smooth operation and ease of control, particularly beneficial in applications requiring precision, such as loading or mowing. However, the two-post folding ROPS offers limited overall cabin protection compared to fully enclosed cabs, but an optional air-conditioned cab can increase operator comfort during extended use.

MAHINDRA 2638 TIRES

The Mahindra 2638 tractor, equipped with standard agricultural tires (7-16 front and 11.2-24 rear), is optimized for fieldwork, offering excellent traction and stability in various soil conditions. Switching to industrial tires (10-16.5 front and 43x16-20 rear) enhances loading capabilities, making it suitable for construction or material handling tasks. However, it's crucial to consider the trade-off in terms of ride comfort and potential soil compaction when using industrial tires in agricultural settings.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES

The Mahindra 2638 tractor, with a weight range of 3130 to 3351 pounds, is suitable for moderate-duty agricultural tasks and light construction work. The front tire size of 7-16 and rear tire size of 11.2-24 contributes to improved traction and stability, particularly on uneven terrain, while maintaining agility for maneuverability. However, the relatively lightweight may pose stability challenges when used for heavier implements or on steep inclines, making it essential to match tasks with appropriate attachments and conditions.
