ENGINE DETAIL

The White 80 tractor features a robust Cummins turbocharged diesel engine with a 3.9L displacement, delivering reliable performance at a rated RPM of 2200, which is ideal for moderate to heavy agricultural tasks. Key advantages include efficient combustion provided by the turbocharger and essential pre-heating options like a 750W coolant heater for enhanced cold-start performance. However, consider the oil capacity of 11.6 quarts and coolant capacity of 24 quarts, as these parameters may influence maintenance routines and thus operational downtime.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The White 80 tractor's 6-speed sliding gear transmission combined with an 18-speed partial power shift offers a versatile range of gear ratios, enhancing its adaptability for various field conditions. This setup allows for smooth gear transitions under load, improving efficiency in tasks like towing or plowing. However, operators may need additional training to master the intricacies of power shifting to maximize performance and avoid potential drivetrain stress.

TRANSMISSION 1

The White 80 tractor features a sliding gear transmission with 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, enhancing its versatility for various field operations. Its dry disc clutch system provides efficient power transfer but may require more maintenance compared to hydraulic clutches. With an oil capacity of 52 quarts (49.2 liters), ensure regular checks to maintain optimal lubrication and reduce wear on transmission components.

TRANSMISSION 2

The White 80 tractor features an 18 forward and 6 reverse gear configuration complemented by a partial power shift transmission, enhancing operational versatility for various tasks. With an oil capacity of 52 quarts (49.2L), maintenance of the hydraulic and transmission systems is manageable, but users should monitor fluid levels closely to ensure optimal performance. The three-speed power shift allows for smoother transitions between gears, which is beneficial in applications requiring frequent speed adjustments, such as tillage or loading.

Description The optional power shift transmission add a three-speed power shift to the basic six-speed transmission.

MECHANICAL

The White 80 tractor features a versatile chassis option with 2WD or 4WD configurations, allowing for adaptability to various terrain and operational scenarios. Its power steering enhances maneuverability, while the dry disc brake system offers reliable stopping performance. The choice between a 6-speed sliding gear transmission or an 18-speed partial power shift provides operators with flexibility in speed management, optimizing performance for tasks like tillage or transport.

WHITE 80 TIRES

The White 80 tractor is available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations, with tire options tailored for agricultural use, thereby enhancing traction and stability. The 2WD variant with standard ag tires provides better fuel efficiency and lower maintenance costs, while the 4WD configuration improves handling in challenging terrains, offering greater pulling power. Notably, the differing tire sizes (e.g., 7.50-18 front and 16.9-34 rear for 2WD) must be considered for compatibility with implements and overall performance in specific agricultural tasks.

2WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 7.50-18. Rear: 16.9-34
4WD Standard tires (ag) Front: 11.2-24. Rear: 16.9-34
4WD Optional tires (ag) Front: 11.2-24. Rear: 15.5-38

DIMENSIONS & TIRES

The White 80 tractor, with a wheelbase of 95.5 inches, provides stability and improved handling for various field operations but may have limitations in tight spaces. Weighing 9170 lbs, it offers substantial traction, although its 2WD configuration can reduce performance in adverse conditions such as mud or steep inclines. The tire specifications (7.50-18 front and 16.9-34 rear) suggest a capability for moderate load-bearing and effective ground contact, but upgrading to larger tires may be beneficial for enhanced flotation and reduced soil compaction during heavy tasks.
