ENGINE DETAIL

The New Holland TC40A tractor features a Shibaura N844 diesel engine, renowned for its durability and efficiency, with a 2.0L displacement generating 40hp at a rated RPM of 2600, which is optimal for a variety of agricultural tasks. Its dual dry element air cleaner enhances engine performance by effectively filtering dust and debris, extending maintenance intervals. However, potential buyers should be mindful of the tractor's limited power for heavy-duty applications, making it most suitable for smaller farms or light-duty operations.

NEW HOLLAND TC40A ENGINE

The New Holland TC40A features a Shibaura 2.0L 4-cylinder diesel engine, providing a robust balance of torque and fuel efficiency suitable for diverse agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 13 gallons (49.2 liters), it allows for extended operational time between refuels, which is advantageous for larger farms or prolonged fieldwork. However, its compact design may limit heavy-duty performance compared to larger tractors, making it ideal for medium-scale applications but potentially less suitable for intensive tasks requiring higher horsepower.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The New Holland TC40A features a 12-speed synch shuttle hydrostatic transmission, offering seamless gear shifting and enhanced control for diverse farming tasks. Its hydrostatic design provides smooth acceleration and deceleration, making it ideal for operations that require precise maneuverability, such as loader work or tight field turns. However, the complexity of the synch shuttle may increase maintenance requirements and operational learning curve for new users.

TRANSMISSION 1

The New Holland TC40A features a synch shuttle transmission, which allows for smooth gear shifting without the need to come to a complete stop, enhancing productivity in various applications such as loader work or field operations. With 12 forward and reverse gears, the tractor offers versatile speed and torque options, making it ideal for tasks ranging from tilling to transport. However, operators should be aware that while synch shuttle improves ease of use, it may not provide the same durability under extreme loads compared to more robust transmission types.

Gears 12 forward and reverse

TRANSMISSION 2

The New Holland TC40A features a dual power hydrostatic transmission, allowing for seamless infinite control in four forward and reverse ranges, enhancing user-friendliness and efficiency. This setup is advantageous for varied agricultural tasks, providing smooth operation during load changes or speed adjustments. However, users should be aware that hydrostatic systems may require more maintenance and can have higher operational costs compared to gear-driven alternatives, especially in heavy-duty applications.

MECHANICAL

The New Holland TC40A features a 4x4 MFWD configuration, which enhances traction and stability, making it suitable for varied terrain and heavy-duty applications. The 12-speed synch shuttle hydrostatic transmission allows for smooth transitions between forward and reverse, optimizing productivity in tasks like loader work or tillage. However, the two-post folding ROPS may limit operator protection compared to a fully enclosed cab, so consider safety in your operational context.
