VALMET 865 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Valmet 865 is powered by a turbocharged 4-cylinder diesel engine providing 86.5 hp at a rated RPM of 2350, offering a good balance between power output and fuel efficiency. With a displacement of 4.4L, this engine's bore and stroke dimensions (4.252 x 4.724 inches) indicate robust torque characteristics, making it suitable for demanding applications such as plowing or heavy lifting. Challenges may include maintaining optimal cooling in intense operations due to its liquid-cooled system, which is critical for sustained performance.

VALMET 865 ENGINE
The Valmet 865 features a 4.4L 4-cylinder diesel engine, offering a balance between power and fuel efficiency for various agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 19.3 gallons (73.1 liters), it provides extended operational time, which is advantageous for larger fieldwork but may necessitate careful weight distribution when fully loaded. Consideration should be given to terrain types, as its performance can be optimal in flat to moderately inclined areas but may face challenges in rugged conditions due to its weight and dimensions.

TRANSMISSION
The Valmet 865 features an 8 forward and 4 reverse gear configuration, providing versatility in various agricultural tasks with optimal speed control and torque management. This transmission setup allows for efficient handling of different terrains, an advantage during fieldwork and transport operations. However, operators may need to adapt to the gear shifts for smoother performance, especially in demanding scenarios like heavy towing or navigating steep gradients.

MECHANICAL
The Valmet 865 features a 4x4 MFWD drivetrain, enhancing traction and stability on uneven terrain, making it ideal for various agricultural applications. Its power steering offers improved maneuverability, particularly beneficial in tight spaces. However, the 8-speed transmission may limit operational flexibility compared to models with more gears, potentially impacting performance in varying load conditions.

VALMET 865 TIRES
The Valmet 865 tractor's 2WD configuration with standard agricultural tires (10.00-16 front and 19.6R34 rear) offers sufficient traction for lighter farming tasks but may struggle with stability and pulling power in challenging conditions. Upgrading to the 4WD system enhances traction and maneuverability, particularly in wet or uneven terrain, with front tires sized at 12.4R24 and rear at 18.4R34, increasing overall load capacity. Users should consider the increased initial cost and maintenance of the 4WD system against the potential productivity gains on diverse landscapes.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Valmet 865 tractor features a 94.1-inch wheelbase, providing stability for field operations and maneuverability in tight spaces. Weighing between 7033 to 8003 pounds, it offers substantial traction, particularly when equipped with the 19.6R34 rear tires suitable for various soil conditions. However, being a 2WD model may limit its performance in muddy or steep terrain compared to 4WD counterparts, so it’s best suited for flatter, less demanding fields.
