ENGINE DETAIL
The Parrett H 12-25 tractor features a robust 4-cylinder Buda engine with a liquid-cooled system, providing reliable thermal management for extended use. With a displacement of 312 ci (5.1 L) and a bore/stroke ratio of 4.25x5.50 inches, it is well-suited for moderate agricultural applications requiring consistent power output. The Kingston carburetor enhances fuel efficiency, while the water bath air cleaner can be advantageous in dusty environments, though it may require more maintenance than dry filters.

PARRETT H 12-25 ENGINE
The Parrett H 12-25 features a Buda 5.1L 4-cylinder kerosene engine, which provides efficient power delivery and can be advantageous for fuel economy in agricultural applications. However, kerosene may require specific handling and storage considerations compared to diesel. Its robust construction makes it suitable for rugged terrain, but users should ensure adequate maintenance to prevent wear in extended operations.

TRANSMISSION
The Parrett H 12-25 tractor features an unsynchronized transmission with 2 forward gears and 1 reverse, which may result in challenges during gear shifting under load. The simplicity of this gear configuration can provide advantages in terms of reliability and ease of maintenance, making it suitable for straightforward tasks. However, operators may need to develop a skillful technique for effective shifting to avoid potential grinding and enhance operational efficiency.

MECHANICAL
The Parrett H 12-25 tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, offering simplicity and ease of maintenance but may limit traction in challenging terrains. Its open operator station design enhances operator visibility and comfort, though it exposes the driver to weather elements. The 2-speed unsynchronized gear transmission allows for straightforward operation but may require careful timing for smooth gear shifts, particularly under load conditions.

PARRETT H 12-25 TIRES
The Parrett H 12-25 tractor features 60x10 steel agricultural rear wheels, which offer enhanced durability and traction on various terrains. The steel construction provides greater resistance to wear and damage, making it suitable for heavy-duty agricultural tasks. However, while they ensure better performance in muddy or loose soil conditions, the rigidity of steel wheels may lead to a harsher ride on uneven surfaces compared to rubber options.
