ENGINE DETAIL
The Wallis Cub tractor features a robust 4-cylinder, 13.0 L gasoline engine with a substantial displacement of 792 ci, providing ample torque for agricultural tasks. Its unique hand-crank starter may pose usability challenges, particularly in colder environments where additional force may be required to crank the engine. Given its large bore and stroke dimensions, this tractor is ideal for heavy-duty applications, yet it may result in higher fuel consumption and increased wear over time.

WALLIS CUB ENGINE
The Wallis Cub tractor features a powerful 13.0L 4-cylinder gasoline engine, providing robust performance for various agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 30 gallons (113.6 liters), it allows for extended operational range, reducing downtime for refueling during intensive fieldwork. However, the substantial engine size may lead to increased fuel consumption compared to smaller tractors, making it less economical for lighter tasks.

TRANSMISSION
The Wallis Cub tractor employs a simple [-|-] gear mechanism, featuring 2 forward gears and 1 reverse gear, which enhances maneuverability in tight spaces but limits speed variance in demanding agricultural tasks. The straightforward transmission design offers reliability and ease of maintenance; however, it may not provide sufficient torque for heavy-duty operations. This setup is ideal for small-scale farming or hobbyist applications, where versatility and adaptability are prioritized over high-speed performance.

| Gears | 2 forward and 1 reverse |
MECHANICAL
The Wallis Cub tractor features a 3x2 2WD chassis providing basic stability and maneuverability, suitable for light agricultural tasks. Its manual steering may require more operator effort, particularly in tight spaces, while the 2-speed gear transmission allows for versatility in speed control, enhancing performance across various terrains. Pros include simplicity in design and maintenance; however, limited traction and steering precision could be challenges for heavier workloads or more complex farming environments.

WALLIS CUB TIRES
The Wallis Cub tractor features an agricultural front tire size of 34x14 and a robust rear tire size of 60x20, both made of steel, which enhances durability and load-bearing capacity, ideal for heavy tillage operations. The steel construction, while long-lasting, may lead to increased weight, potentially impacting maneuverability and causing soil compaction. In scenarios involving soft or loose soil conditions, a transition to rubber tires could improve traction and reduce ground pressure.
