ENGINE DETAIL

The Renault 421 tractor, powered by a MWM D327-3 diesel engine, features a compact 2.8L displacement and a robust torque of 126.9 lb-ft at 1500 RPM, making it suitable for tasks requiring steady pulling power in low to moderate-speed applications. With a rated power output of 42 hp at 2150 RPM, its relatively low RPM range suggests efficiency in fieldwork and transport duties without excessive fuel consumption. However, its limited power may present challenges in more demanding agricultural scenarios, especially in terrains requiring higher horsepower and rapid speed.

TRANSMISSION

The Renault 421 features a 10-forward and 2-reverse gear transmission, providing flexible speed and direction options for varied field conditions. This gear setup offers optimal control for tasks such as plowing or transporting, albeit may present challenges in smooth operation at higher speeds due to gear spacing. Ideal for agricultural operations, the gear configuration enhances productivity while ensuring adaptability across different terrain types.

Gears

10 forward and 2 reverse

MECHANICAL

The Renault 421 tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, which provides adequate traction for light to moderate tasks, but may struggle in challenging terrains compared to 4WD models. Its mechanical steering system offers simplicity and ease of repair, but may lack the precision of hydraulic systems, potentially impacting agility during maneuvering. The optional cab provides comfort and protection from the elements, making it suitable for longer operational hours, while the 10-speed transmission allows for versatile speed control across various applications, enhancing productivity.
