OLIVER 950 TRANSMISSION
The Oliver 950 tractor features a 6-speed gear transmission, providing versatility in speed and torque management for various agricultural tasks. This allows operators to optimize performance for both high-speed transport and low-speed fieldwork, enhancing productivity. However, the limited gear options may challenge adaptability in exceptionally varied terrains or specific operational requirements compared to modern multi-speed systems.
MECHANICAL
The Oliver 950 tractor features a two-wheel drive system, which enhances traction on firm surfaces, making it ideal for general agricultural tasks, but may struggle in soft or uneven terrain. Its disc brakes provide efficient stopping power, offering an advantage in safety and control, especially when handling heavy loads. The open operator station allows for increased visibility and ease of entry/exit but may expose the operator to environmental conditions, requiring suitable protective measures.
