ENGINE DETAIL

The Shibaura SE1600 tractor features a compact 0.8L diesel engine with a high compression ratio of 23.1:1, offering efficient fuel combustion and enhanced power output of 16hp at 2700 RPM. Its 2-cylinder design, with a torque peak of 32.9 lb-ft at 1800 RPM, makes it suitable for light to moderate agricultural tasks while ensuring smooth operation due to the liquid cooling system. However, its limited power may challenge larger implements, so it is best employed in scenarios requiring nimble maneuverability in smaller fields or gardens.

SHIBAURA SE1600 ENGINE

The Shibaura SE1600 is powered by a compact 0.8L 2-cylinder diesel engine, providing a good balance of power and fuel efficiency, ideal for small-scale farming and landscaping applications. Its compact size offers maneuverability in tight spaces, but limited engine displacement may impact performance under heavy load conditions. This tractor is suitable for tasks requiring agility rather than high horsepower, such as tilling or gardening.

TRANSMISSION

The Shibaura SE1600 features a 12 forward and 4 reverse gear configuration, providing versatility for various field applications and adaptability to changing terrain. The inclusion of a dry disc clutch enhances power transmission efficiency, although it may require more frequent servicing compared to wet clutches. This tractor is well-suited for small to medium agricultural tasks, but users should be mindful of the clutch wear in intensive operations.

MECHANICAL

The Shibaura SE1600 features a 4x2 2WD chassis, which provides ease of handling on flat terrain but may struggle in muddy or uneven conditions. The mechanical drum brakes are simpler and cost-effective but may lack the stopping power and reliability of hydraulic brakes, especially under heavy loads. With a 12-speed gear transmission, operators can achieve better control over speed and torque for varying tasks, enhancing versatility for small-scale agricultural operations.

SHIBAURA SE1600 TIRES

The Shibaura SE1600 features a dual tire setup with front 4.00x12 and rear 8.3x24 dimensions, providing a balance of maneuverability and traction for small to medium agricultural tasks. The narrower front tires enhance steering precision, while the wider rear tires improve stability during heavier loads. Given its compact size, it's ideal for tight spaces and smaller farms, but may face limitations in high-torque applications due to its lower horsepower output and smaller chassis.
