ENGINE DETAIL
The McCormick Intl X4.20 tractor features a Deutz C4DT62 engine with a displacement of 2.9L, producing 61hp and a maximum power output of 64hp, optimized for tasks requiring reliable torque delivery at 1600 RPM (180 lb-ft). Its common rail fuel system enhances fuel atomization, improving combustion efficiency while meeting Interim Tier IV emissions standards through cooled EGR and a DOC, making it suitable for environmentally conscious operations. However, operators should consider the implications of emissions regulations on agricultural practices and expect possible increased maintenance associated with the emission control systems.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The McCormick Intl X4.20 features a 12-speed partially synchronized power shuttle that enhances operator control during directional changes, providing smooth transitions for efficient field operations. This system allows for precise speed selection, which is beneficial for applications requiring varied fieldwork such as tilling or loading. However, the partial synchronization may require operators to match speeds manually in some situations, potentially affecting efficiency during rapid shifts between forward and reverse gears.

TRANSMISSION 1
The McCormick Intl X4.20 tractor features a partially synchronized transmission with 12 forward and reverse gears, providing operators the flexibility needed for varied tasks and terrain. The 280mm dry disc clutch offers reliable engagement but may require more frequent maintenance compared to hydraulic systems. This setup is advantageous for precise maneuvering in confined spaces, though less efficient in terms of shifting speed compared to fully synchronized systems, potentially impacting productivity in high-demand applications.

| Gears | 12 forward and reverse |
| Clutch | 280mm dry disc |
| Description | Four synchronized gears in three ranges with mechanical shuttle |
TRANSMISSION 2
The McCormick Intl X4.20 features a hydraulic wet disc clutch and a power shuttle system, enhancing operator ease during forward and reverse shifting without clutch disengagement. Its 12 gears (4 synchronized in 3 ranges) provide versatility for various field applications, accommodating different terrain and load conditions. However, the complexity of the transmission system may necessitate specialized maintenance to ensure optimal performance.
