MECHANICAL
The McKee 350 tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, which provides basic two-wheel drive capabilities suitable for light agricultural tasks but may struggle in uneven terrain. Its open operator station offers visibility and ease of access, benefiting operations in warmer climates, though it lacks protection from environmental elements. The 8-speed transmission allows for versatile speed control, making it ideal for various implements, but may require more operator skill to manage effectively.
