NEW HOLLAND WORKMASTER 40 ENGINE

The New Holland Workmaster 40 is powered by a LS Mitron 1.9L 3-cylinder diesel engine, which offers a balance of power and fuel efficiency suitable for small to mid-sized farming operations. With a fuel tank capacity of 7.4 gallons (28.0 liters), the tractor allows for extended operation times between refueling, enhancing productivity in field tasks. However, its relatively small engine size may limit heavy-duty applications, making it best suited for light to moderate load handling and maintenance activities.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The New Holland Workmaster 40 features a 12-speed synchronized shuttle hydrostatic transmission, offering smooth shifting and enhanced control, ideal for tasks requiring frequent direction changes. This transmission design minimizes operator fatigue and increases efficiency in both forward and reverse operations, making it suitable for loader work and tight maneuvering. However, the complexity of hydrostatic systems may require more maintenance compared to conventional transmissions, so regular checks are essential for optimal performance.

TRANSMISSION 1

The New Holland Workmaster 40's synchronized shuttle transmission offers seamless gear shifting, enhancing operator comfort and efficiency, especially during load changes. Its 12 forward and reverse gears provide versatility in various agricultural applications, enabling precise speed control for tasks like tilling and hauling. However, the mechanical shuttle may require additional operator skill for optimal gear management compared to fully automatic systems, presenting a learning curve for less experienced users.

Type synchronized shuttle
Gears 12 forward and reverse
Description Four gears in three ranges with mechanical shuttle

TRANSMISSION 2

The New Holland Workmaster 40 tractor features hydrostatic transmission, providing seamless control over speed and direction without the need for shifting gears, ideal for tasks requiring precision, such as loader work or mowing. Its infinite (3-range) forward and reverse gears enhance operational versatility, allowing smooth transitions between various speed requirements without interruptions. However, while hydrostatic systems offer ease of use, they may present higher maintenance costs over time compared to traditional gear systems.

MECHANICAL

The New Holland Workmaster 40 features a 4x4 MFWD configuration, enhancing traction and stability on varied terrains, making it suitable for both agricultural and light construction work. Its mechanical rear differential lock and wet disc brakes offer improved control and safety during challenging operations, while the 12-speed synchronized hydrostatic shuttle transmission provides versatility in speed management, particularly for loader work. The two-post folding ROPS cab ensures operator safety without compromising visibility, making it effective for tight spaces or confined areas.
