TRANSMISSION
The Nuffield Mini 9/16 tractor features a 9-speed forward and 3-speed reverse gear system, providing versatility for various agricultural tasks. Its 228.6mm dry disc clutch allows for smooth engagement and disengagement, although it may require more maintenance than a wet clutch under heavy usage conditions. This setup is advantageous for operations needing precise speed control, but the limited gear transitions could be a challenge in steep terrains or fast-paced environments.
