ENGINE DETAIL

The Zetor 7340, equipped with a turbocharged 3.9L diesel engine, offers a favorable power-to-weight ratio with a rated output of 78hp at 2200 RPM and peak torque of 207 lb-ft at 1420 RPM, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications such as tilling and hauling. Its bore-stroke ratio of 4.02x4.72 inches suggests a robust engine design optimized for torque delivery, but the relatively low maximum RPM may limit top-end speed for highway transport. The use of a 12V starter ensures compatibility with standard electrical systems, enhancing reliability in various operational conditions.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The Zetor 7340 features a 10-speed synchronized transmission, allowing for smooth gear changes and versatile speed options for various farming tasks. This transmission type enhances operational efficiency and productivity, particularly in applications requiring frequent speed adjustments, such as plowing or harvesting. However, the complexity of upkeep and potential for sync-related issues may pose challenges in long-term maintenance.

Description 10-speed synchro/10-speed

TRANSMISSION 1

The Zetor 7340 features a synchro transmission with 10 forward and 2 reverse gears, allowing for smooth shifting and versatility in various terrain conditions. The hydraulic 304.8mm cerametallic clutch provides enhanced durability and improved power transfer, pivotal for demanding agricultural tasks. However, users may need to adapt to the gear shifting pattern for optimal performance, especially in challenging operational scenarios.
