ENGINE DETAIL

The Mitsubishi GO281 tractor features a robust Mitsubishi S4L2 diesel engine with a displacement of 1.8L, providing a moderate power output of 27.6hp at 2500 RPM, ideal for small to medium agricultural tasks. Its 4-cylinder liquid-cooled design optimally balances power and efficiency, suitable for rugged terrains, while the electric starter enhances convenience and reliability in starting. However, potential users should consider its limited power for heavy-duty applications, making it best suited for lighter farming operations or as a secondary tractor for specific tasks.

MITSUBISHI GO281 ENGINE

The Mitsubishi GO281 features a 1.8L 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing a balance of power and efficiency suitable for light to moderate agricultural tasks. With an 8.5-gallon (32.2-liter) fuel tank, this tractor offers reasonable operational range, although larger tasks may require frequent refueling. Its compact size could be an advantage in tight spaces, but may limit its capability for heavy-duty applications compared to larger models.

TRANSMISSION

The Mitsubishi GO281 tractor features a 16-speed transmission with a left-hand shuttle shift, enhancing maneuverability and allowing for precise speed adjustments when engaging in tasks such as plowing or towing. Its four gear ranges enable optimal performance across various terrains, making it versatile for different agricultural applications. However, the complexity of the gearbox may require operators to have a solid understanding of gear mechanics to avoid operational mishaps.

Gears 16 forward and reverse
Description Four gears in four ranges with left-hand shuttle shift.

MECHANICAL

The Mitsubishi GO281 features a 4x4 MFWD configuration, providing enhanced traction on diverse terrains, particularly advantageous for agricultural tasks in muddy or uneven fields. Its 16-speed transmission allows for optimized power management and speed control, catering to various operational needs but may require some adaptation for operators unfamiliar with multi-speed systems. The optional cab provides operator comfort and protection, although the standard two-post ROPS design may limit weather protection during adverse conditions.

MITSUBISHI GO281 TIRES

The Mitsubishi GO281 tractor features standard ag tires with a front size of 7-16 and a rear size of 11.2-26, promoting stability and traction in diverse agricultural applications. However, the narrow front tires may limit maneuverability in tighter spaces and increase soil compaction in certain conditions. Overall, this setup is advantageous for medium-sized fields, offering good performance in both tillage and transport.
