VALMET 665 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Valmet 665 tractor is equipped with a robust 4-cylinder Valmet 420 DS diesel engine, delivering 80hp (59.7kW) at a rated RPM of 2350, which is beneficial for applications requiring consistent power. Its displacement of 4.4L and a favorable compression ratio of 16.5:1 improve thermal efficiency and torque output, making it suitable for heavy-duty farming tasks. However, the relatively high RPM may lead to increased wear in prolonged operations; thus, careful monitoring of engine parameters during extended use is advisable.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The Valmet 665 tractor features an 8-speed transmission with an optional 12-speed creeper gearbox, enabling precise speed control for tasks requiring meticulous maneuvering, such as tilling or planting. The creeper gearbox is advantageous for low-speed operations, enhancing torque delivery while maintaining engine efficiency; however, the complexity of the system may lead to higher maintenance requirements. Ideal for applications in narrow-row cropping or high-precision horticulture, the tractor's configuration maximizes both productivity and operator control.

TRANSMISSION 1
The Valmet 665 tractor features a total of 12 gears, providing flexibility with 8 forward gears and 4 reverse gears, allowing for better adaptability in varied terrains and tasks. Its dual-range transmission (low/high) enhances torque efficiency at lower speeds, making it advantageous for tasks requiring precision, such as plowing or tilling. However, the limited number of gears may pose challenges in very steep gradients or when rapidly changing speeds.

TRANSMISSION 2
The Valmet 665 tractor, equipped with a creeper transmission, enhances versatility with its additional four speeds for both forward and reverse, resulting in a total of 12 forward and 8 reverse gears. This is particularly advantageous for precise operations such as plowing or planting in tight spaces where lower speeds are beneficial. However, the complexity of the creeper system may increase maintenance requirements and operator training.

VALMET 665 TIRES
The Valmet 665 tractor, available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations, showcases versatility in tire sizes, optimizing traction for various agricultural applications. The 2WD version emphasizes cost-effectiveness and simplicity, potentially limiting performance on uneven terrain, while the 4WD configuration provides enhanced stability and power distribution, making it more suitable for challenging field conditions. Operator considerations should include the intended use; for example, 4WD is preferable in muddy or hilly landscapes for improved maneuverability and reduced slippage.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Valmet 665 tractor's 2WD configuration, with an 88.4-inch wheelbase, offers enhanced maneuverability for tighter spaces but may compromise traction on uneven terrain. In contrast, the 4WD variant, with a 94-inch wheelbase, provides improved stability and traction, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications like plowing or pulling in adverse conditions. The choice between tire sizes (10.00-16 front and 16.9R30 rear for 2WD) affects load distribution and soil compaction; larger tires can improve flotation but may also increase soil disturbance, affecting crop growth.
