ENGINE DETAIL

The Mitsubishi MT372 tractor features a KE70 diesel engine with a moderate displacement of 0.7L, generating 15 hp, which may excel in light agricultural tasks or yard work. Its 20:1 compression ratio indicates efficiency, while the dry air cleaner system requires minimal maintenance but may affect dust filtration in extreme conditions. A relatively low coolant and oil capacity may necessitate more frequent servicing, particularly in high-load scenarios.

MITSUBISHI MT372 ENGINE

The Mitsubishi MT372, featuring a 0.7L 2-cylinder diesel engine, offers compact power ideal for small to medium agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 4 gallons (15.1 L), it strikes a balance between operational range and weight, making it suitable for maneuverability in tight spaces. However, its smaller engine size may pose challenges in heavy-duty applications or extensive workloads.

TRANSMISSION

The Mitsubishi MT372 tractor features a 6-speed forward and 2-speed reverse gearbox, which provides versatility for varying field conditions and tasks. With a compact 180mm dry disc clutch, it ensures reliable engagement under moderate load but may present challenges in heavier duty applications. Its oil capacity of 12.7 quarts (12.0L) supports efficient lubrication, reducing maintenance frequency but requiring regular checks to avoid potential overheating.

MECHANICAL

The Mitsubishi MT372 tractor features a 2WD/4WD configuration with mechanical rear differential lock, enhancing traction on challenging terrain, though 4WD may impact fuel efficiency. The manual steering provides simplicity and direct control, but can be less comfortable during extended operation compared to hydraulic systems. The 6-speed gear transmission offers versatility for various field conditions, albeit it may require more operator skill for optimal performance in different applications.
