ZETOR 15 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Zetor 15 tractor features a 1-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 1.6 L, offering a modest power output of 15 hp at 1500 RPM, which is ideal for light-duty tasks like small-scale farming or gardening. Its bore-stroke configuration (120 x 140 mm) suggests a torque-focused design, providing good low-end performance, albeit at lower maximum speeds typical for one-cylinder engines. The compact design and simplicity enhance maneuverability in tight spaces, but limited power and versatility might restrict its use in more demanding agricultural applications.

ZETOR 15 ENGINE
The Zetor 15 features a robust 1.6L single-cylinder diesel engine, providing efficient fuel consumption and reliable torque delivery for light agricultural tasks. Its compact size and weight enhance maneuverability in tight spaces, making it suitable for small farms or vineyards. However, the single-cylinder design may lead to increased vibration and reduced power output under heavy loads, limiting its performance for more demanding applications.

TRANSMISSION
The Zetor 15 tractor features a simple transmission system with 5 forward gears and 1 reverse, providing straightforward operational capabilities ideal for basic agricultural tasks. This limited gearing may result in less flexibility for varying terrain and operational speeds, potentially challenging for more complex tasks such as transport or heavy-duty applications. However, its simplicity can be advantageous for novice operators, ensuring ease of use and maintenance.

MECHANICAL
The Zetor 15 features a 5-speed transmission, offering improved torque management and versatility across various terrains, advantageous for agricultural tasks. However, the limited number of gears may restrict optimal performance in highly variable conditions compared to multi-speed options. Ideal for small-scale operations where simplicity and reliability are prioritized.

ZETOR 15 TIRES
The Zetor 15 tractor features narrow front tires (5.50-16) and wider rear tires (9-24), which enhance maneuverability in tight spaces while providing stability during operations. This tire combination is advantageous for tasks like plowing and tillage, offering improved traction on varying soil conditions. However, the smaller front tires may lead to reduced weight distribution, potentially limiting effectiveness in heavier, load-bearing applications.
