TRANSMISSION
The Valtra S263 features a continuously-variable transmission (CVT) system, allowing for seamless power delivery and enhanced fuel efficiency by optimizing engine RPMs across various loads. With infinite forward and reverse gears, operators can achieve precise speed adjustments, improving maneuverability in tight spaces and varying terrain scenarios. A potential challenge is the complexity of CVT maintenance, which may require specialized knowledge and tools compared to traditional gear systems.

VALTRA S263 TIRES
The Valtra S263 features standard agricultural tires with a front size of 600/70R28 and a rear size of 650/85R38, which provides optimal traction and stability for various field operations. The larger rear tires enhance load-carrying capacity and improve flotation in softer soil, while the front tires facilitate steering precision and maneuverability. However, operators should consider potential soil compaction due to tire size; balancing between flotation and soil conservation practices is crucial, especially in wet or delicate terrains.
