ENGINE DETAIL
The White 2-105 tractor features a robust Perkins turbocharged 6-cylinder diesel engine, providing excellent torque and power output, making it suitable for heavy tillage and fieldwork. With a displacement of 5.8 L and a high compression ratio of 16:1, it demonstrates efficient thermal performance and fuel economy. However, the relatively low rated RPM of 2200 may limit its operational speed in high-demand applications, necessitating careful gear selection for optimal performance.

WHITE 2-105 ENGINE
The White 2-105 tractor is powered by a Perkins 5.8L 6-cylinder diesel engine, offering a robust power output suitable for various agricultural applications. This engine is known for its durability and efficiency, providing high torque characteristics for heavy-duty tasks, although it may require meticulous maintenance to ensure optimal performance. The tractor's hydraulic system, along with its weight and traction capabilities, makes it ideal for plowing and towing, but operators should be aware of potential fuel consumption challenges in intensive use scenarios.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW
The White 2-105 tractor features a 6-speed unsynchronized transmission paired with an 18-speed partial powershift, allowing for flexible gear selection and smoother transitions between speeds. This configuration can enhance productivity in varying field conditions, but the unsynchronized transmission may require more skill for gear changes, posing a challenge for less experienced operators. Overall, the tractor is well-suited for applications requiring both versatility and power management, such as plowing or hauling tasks.

TRANSMISSION 1
The White 2-105 tractor features a unsynchronized transmission system with 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, which can pose shifting challenges under heavy load or while maneuvering. The absence of synchronization may require operators to match engine speed with gear speed, increasing operator skill requirements but potentially offering greater control in specialized scenarios. This tractor is well-suited for tasks requiring versatility and precision in speed, but may not be ideal for users seeking seamless gear engagement.

TRANSMISSION 2
The White 2-105 features a partial powershift transmission with a total of 18 forward and 6 reverse gears, allowing for enhanced operational flexibility and smooth transitions between speeds. The inclusion of over and under powershift for each gear optimizes engine performance and fuel efficiency during varied field tasks. However, operators may need to be familiar with the shifting mechanism to fully exploit its advantages, particularly in complex applications such as tillage or hauling heavy loads.

MECHANICAL
The White 2-105 tractor features a 4x2 2WD configuration, which provides good maneuverability but may limit traction in adverse conditions compared to 4WD models. Its hydrostatic power steering enhances operator comfort and reduce fatigue during prolonged use, while the independent hydraulic wet disc brakes offer reliable stopping power and safety. The optional cab with heat and A/C makes it suitable for diverse climates, and the transmission options (6-speed unsynchronized or 18-speed partial powershift) allow for versatile speed adjustments suitable for various agricultural tasks.

WHITE 2-105 TIRES
The White 2-105 features a robust 2WD configuration with Ag front tires (11L-15) and Ag rear tires (18.4-38), enhancing traction for various agricultural applications. The large rear tires provide excellent flotation and stability on uneven terrains, which is beneficial for field operations but may limit maneuverability in tighter spaces. The combination of tire sizes suggests optimal performance in plowing and tillage tasks, though it may face challenges with power management under heavy load scenarios due to the tractor’s weight distribution.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The White 2-105 tractor features a 109.6-inch wheelbase, providing stability during operation while also facilitating maneuverability in tighter spaces. Weighing 11,810 lbs, it offers substantial traction for heavy-duty tasks, particularly in agricultural applications, though its weight may limit mobility on softer terrain. The tire specifications (11L-15 front and 18.4-38 rear) suggest a focus on balanced weight distribution and traction; however, tire compatibility should be carefully considered for soil compaction dynamics.
