UTB/UNIVERSAL 483 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The UTB 483 tractor features a 2.8L diesel engine with a 3-cylinder configuration, delivering 48 HP at 2400 RPM, which balances power and fuel efficiency for medium-duty agricultural tasks. Its bore/stroke ratio of 4.016x4.528 inches suggests a longer stroke, potentially favoring torque delivery at lower RPMs, which is beneficial for heavy towing or soil tillage. The 12-volt starter system ensures reliable starting, but the overall design may present limited power for larger implements, making it more suitable for small to mid-sized farms.
