ENGINE DETAIL
The McCormick-Deering T-20 features a robust kerosene engine with a displacement of 220.9 cubic inches, delivering reliable power at a rated RPM of 1250, ideal for low-speed, high-torque applications. Its 3.75 x 5.00-inch bore-stroke configuration suggests a strong torque curve, beneficial for heavy fieldwork, but may limit high-speed operations. With a coolant capacity of 28 quarts, it ensures adequate thermal management, though potential challenges may arise from overheating in extended operations under heavy load.

TRANSMISSION
The McCormick-Deering T-20 tractor features a transmission offering 3 forward gears and 1 reverse, providing basic yet effective control for agricultural tasks. Its straightforward gear arrangement is advantageous for operators seeking simplicity and ease of use in farming environments. However, the limited gear ratios may present challenges in optimizing performance for varied terrains and operational speeds, making it suitable primarily for flatland activities or light-duty applications.

MCCORMICK-DEERING T-20 TRANSMISSION
The McCormick-Deering T-20 tractor features a 3-speed gear transmission, providing versatility for various agricultural tasks by offering three distinct operating speeds for different terrain and load conditions. This gearing system can enhance fuel efficiency and engine performance during intensive fieldwork, but may limit operator control in certain conditions, such as steep inclines. In scenarios requiring frequent speed adjustments, operators may need to shift gears more often, impacting overall productivity.
MECHANICAL
The McCormick-Deering T-20 features a crawler drive system, offering enhanced traction on rough terrain, which is ideal for agricultural and construction applications. Its dry single-plate clutch and 11-inch diameter provide moderated power transfer, though this may result in less efficient engagement in wet conditions. The open operator station enhances visibility but may expose the operator to environmental elements, which is a consideration for prolonged usage.
