OLIVER OC-4 ENGINES
The Oliver OC-4 tractor features a choice between a 2.1L Hercules 3-cylinder diesel and gasoline engine, offering flexibility depending on fuel availability or operational cost preferences. With an 11-gallon (41.6L) fuel tank, its range is sufficient for moderate tasks, but operators should consider efficiency based on engine type to avoid frequent refueling during extensive work. The diesel variant typically provides better fuel efficiency and torque for heavy-load scenarios, while the gasoline engine may offer easier starting and lower initial costs, making it a good option for lighter applications.

OLIVER OC-4 TRANSMISSION
The Oliver OC-4 tractor features a 4-speed gear transmission, allowing for flexibility in various field conditions. This transmission system enables operators to optimize power output while maintaining efficient fuel consumption. However, users may find the limited gear range less suitable for harsh terrains compared to models with more advanced multi-speed gear options.
MECHANICAL
The Oliver OC-4 is a crawler tractor known for its robust design and durability, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications like land clearing and construction. Its crawler drive system provides superior traction and stability on uneven terrain, reducing slippage and improving efficiency. However, the weight and size may limit mobility on tight job sites, and maintenance can be more complex compared to wheeled tractors due to the undercarriage components.
