TRANSMISSION

The Renault 55 tractor features a 10-speed forward and 2-speed reverse transmission, allowing for versatile operation across various terrains and tasks, enhancing both efficiency and control. The broad range of gears is advantageous for adapting to different field conditions and speeds, but it may present a challenge in mastering gear selection for inexperienced operators. Overall, its gearing system is ideal for agricultural tasks requiring flexibility, such as plowing, cultivating, or hauling.

Gears

10 forward and 2 reverse

MECHANICAL

The Renault 55 tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis, providing stability on flat terrain but limiting traction in muddy or hilly conditions. Its mechanical steering system offers straightforward handling, yet may lack the precision of power-assisted systems. The 10-speed transmission enhances versatility for various tasks, allowing operators to adapt to different workloads efficiently, but it may require skill for optimal gear selection.
