ENGINE DETAIL

The Schluter Super 500 features a robust 3.9L SD 100 W 4 cylinder engine with a displacement of 239.6 ci, providing a power output of 52 hp at a rated RPM of 1800, which is suitable for a variety of agricultural tasks. Its bore and stroke dimensions (100x125 mm) suggest a long-stroke design, optimizing torque delivery at lower RPMs, beneficial for heavy-duty operation and consistent field activities. However, the lower maximum speed may limit its performance in high-speed applications or on uneven terrain.

SCHLUTER SUPER 500 ENGINE

The Schluter Super 500 tractor is equipped with a 3.9L 4-cylinder engine, which provides a balance of power and efficiency suitable for various agricultural tasks. Its fuel tank options include a 15.1-gallon (57.2L) and a larger 17.2-gallon (65.1L) variant, offering flexibility in operation time between refuels. The choice of tank size can influence runtime and weight distribution, with the larger tank enhancing productivity but potentially increasing overall machine weight, which may affect maneuverability on uneven terrain.

TRANSMISSION

The Schluter Super 500 features an 8-speed forward and 4-speed reverse gear system, which provides versatility for various agricultural tasks and terrain conditions. The multiple gear ratios allow for precise speed adjustment, enhancing operational efficiency and control, especially in tasks like plowing or towing heavy loads. However, the complexity of the gear system may require more maintenance and operator familiarity to maximize performance and prevent potential shifting issues.

Gears

8 forward and 4 reverse

MECHANICAL

The Schluter Super 500 offers a versatile 4x2 and optional 4WD configuration, ideal for various agricultural applications requiring maneuverability and traction. Its mechanical steering system provides simplicity and reliability, although it may lack the precision of hydraulic systems. The 8-speed transmission allows for adaptable speed control, making it suitable for diverse farming tasks but could be less efficient in high-speed transport scenarios compared to tractors with more advanced transmission options.
