RENAULT 681S POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Renault 681S tractor is powered by a reliable MWM D227-4 diesel engine, delivering a moderate 68 hp with a torque peak of 169.6 lb-ft at 1500 RPM, which makes it suitable for medium-duty agricultural tasks. With a bore/stroke of 3.875 x 4.724 inches and a high compression ratio of 17.8:1, this engine offers efficiency and durability, although it may demand higher quality diesel to optimize performance. The 12-volt starter system is conventional, ensuring easy ignition, but be aware of potential challenges in cold weather starting due to the engine's relatively high compression.

RENAULT 681S TIRES
The Renault 681S tractor offers two-wheel drive (2WD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) configurations, with standard and optional tire sizes that significantly affect traction and ground clearance. The 2WD configuration is ideal for lighter tillage tasks on firm ground, while the 4WD option enhances stability and traction in challenging conditions, making it suitable for varied agricultural applications. Consider the intended use: 4WD with larger optional tires provides improved performance in soft or uneven terrain but may lead to higher fuel consumption and maintenance requirements.
