ENGINE DETAIL

The White Field Boss 16 tractor features a compact Mitsubishi 3-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 0.8L, delivering 16hp at 2600 RPM, making it suitable for light-duty agricultural tasks. The high compression ratio of 23:1 offers improved fuel efficiency and torque, but may pose challenges in colder climates despite the pre-heating options like glow plugs and a coolant heater. Its lightweight design allows for maneuverability in tight spaces, ideal for small farms or garden applications, but could limit performance in heavier fieldwork scenarios.

WHITE FIELD BOSS 16 ENGINE

The White Field Boss 16 features a compact Mitsubishi 0.8L 3-cylinder diesel engine, offering efficient fuel consumption, which is advantageous for smaller farming operations. However, the 3.2-gallon (12.1L) fuel tank limits operational run time, potentially requiring frequent refueling during extensive tasks. This tractor is ideal for light applications, but may struggle with heavier loads due to its smaller engine displacement.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The White Field Boss 16 tractor features a 6-speed hydrostatic transmission that allows for smooth speed modulation and excellent maneuverability, making it ideal for various farming tasks and conditions. The hydrostatic system provides ease of use for operators, reducing operator fatigue during prolonged use. However, the potential challenge includes higher maintenance costs compared to traditional mechanical transmissions, impacting long-term ownership expenses.

TRANSMISSION 1

The White Field Boss 16 features a 6-speed forward and 2-speed reverse transmission, providing a versatile gearing range suitable for various field applications. This offers efficient performance in both high-torque tasks like tillage and high-speed tasks such as transport. However, the limited number of reverse gears may pose challenges in maneuverability during tight jobs or when working in confined spaces.

TRANSMISSION 2

The White Field Boss 16 tractor's hydrostatic transmission offers infinite forward and reverse gears, providing seamless operation and ease of use, particularly beneficial in tight maneuvering situations such as in vineyards or orchards. This transmission type allows the operator to maintain optimal engine speed while adjusting ground speed, enhancing productivity. However, hydrostatic systems may require more maintenance compared to traditional gear systems, impacting long-term operational costs.

Gears	infinite forward and reverse

MECHANICAL

The White Field Boss 16 features a robust 4x4 MFWD option, enhancing traction and versatility for varied agricultural tasks. Its manual steering and mechanical dry internal expanding brakes may provide simplicity but could limit precision control and stopping power under heavy loads. The 6-speed or hydrostatic transmission offers flexibility in speed control, making it suitable for both fieldwork and transport scenarios.
