MCCORMICK INTL G30R POWER

Engine (net) 21.5hp / 16.0kW

ENGINE DETAIL

The McCormick Intl G30R features a compact Perkins 3-cylinder diesel engine with a rated power of 21.5hp, which is efficient for light agricultural tasks and ideal for small-scale farming applications where maneuverability is crucial. Its high compression ratio of 23:1 and torque of 39.1 lb-ft at 2460 RPM indicate strong performance in low to mid-range operations, allowing for effective use in tight spaces. However, the relatively small oil and coolant capacities suggest more frequent maintenance intervals (every 125 hours for oil) may be required, which could be a consideration for operational downtime.

MCCORMICK INTL G30R ENGINE

The McCormick Intl G30R tractor, powered by a Perkins 1.0L 3-cylinder diesel engine, offers compact power with lower emissions, ideal for small to medium farming tasks. Its 6.9-gallon fuel tank provides a balance between operational efficiency and frequent refueling, making it suitable for short to moderate tasks where fuel availability may be a concern. However, the limited engine displacement may impact performance on larger tasks or heavy-duty applications, necessitating careful consideration of workload requirements.

TRANSMISSION

The McCormick Intl G30R tractor features a hydrostatic transmission providing seamless control with infinite forward and reverse gears, optimizing ease of operation for various tasks. The 10-quart (9.5-liter) oil capacity ensures adequate lubrication, which is crucial for prolonged engine life and efficient performance, particularly in demanding agricultural applications. However, the complexity of hydrostatic systems can lead to higher maintenance costs compared to traditional transmissions, necessitating regular checks on hydraulic fluid quality for optimal performance.

Gears infinite (2-range) forward and reverse
Oil capacity 10qts / 9.5L

MECHANICAL

The McCormick Intl G30R features a 4x4 MFWD system for improved traction and maneuverability, making it suitable for various terrains. The hydrostatic transmission allows for seamless speed adjustments, enhancing operational efficiency, while the electro-hydraulic rear differential lock increases traction in slippery conditions. However, the mechanical drum brakes may present challenges in emergency stops compared to modern disc systems, and the optional cab can affect overall operator comfort in adverse weather scenarios.

MCCORMICK INTL G30R TIRES

The McCormick Intl G30R tractor offers versatility with both agricultural and lawn/turf tire configurations, enabling optimal functionality across diverse terrains. Its Ag front tires (6.5/80-12) and rear tires (7.00-12) provide robust traction for fieldwork, while the larger lawn/turf tires (23x8.50-12 front and 26x12.00-12 rear) enhance stability and reduce ground compaction on softer surfaces. Depending on your application, choose the appropriate tire set to maximize performance; however, switching between configurations may require additional downtime and expertise.
