Horsepower Range:
Models suggest a range from approximately 70 HP (2-70) to 150 HP (2-150).
Torque:
Specific torque figures would be detailed within the manual based on engine configuration.
Injection System:
Likely a mechanical injection system; details would be in the manual.
Transmission Type:
Various transmissions were common, including manual gearboxes with multiple speed ranges (e.g., 8-speed, 12-speed, 16-speed), and potentially powershift options on higher HP models. Hydrostatic lift system also mentioned.
Powershift:
Possible on higher horsepower models; manual will confirm availability and operation.
Drive Type:
Likely 2WD and 4WD configurations available for different models.
Gear Selection:
Detailed shift patterns, linkage adjustments, and component overhauls will be covered.
Tractor Configuration:
Standard agricultural tractor layout; specific dimensions (length, width, height) vary significantly by model and would be in the manual.
Operating Weight:
Varies by model, typically from around 6,000 lbs to over 12,000 lbs for these horsepower classes.
Wheelbase:
Specific wheelbase measurements will be provided in the manual for each model.
Tractor Safety Standards:
While specific crash ratings aren't applicable, the manual will cover safe operating procedures, ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) if equipped, and PTO safety.
Braking System Safety:
Details on brake adjustment, hydraulic brake systems, parking brake operation.
Operator Station:
Information on seat belts, guarding, and safe access to the operator station.
Operator Interface:
Basic mechanical gauges and controls typical of agricultural tractors from the late 20th century. No complex infotainment systems.
Operator Aid Features:
Features like power steering and potentially differential locks would be considered operator aids. Manual details their operation and maintenance.
Remote Monitoring:
N/A. These are analog, mechanically controlled tractors.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 250-500 hours, depending on operating conditions. Manual will specify exact intervals and oil type.
Fuel Filter Replacement:
Intervals based on hours or as needed if experiencing fuel issues; manual will provide details.
Hydraulic Fluid Change:
Typically annually or every 500-1000 hours; manual will specify fluid type and capacity.
Engine Oil Specification:
Typically SAE 15W-40 or 30 for diesel engines of this era. Manual will list specific API ratings (e.g., CD, CE) and viscosity grades.
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
Tractor Hydraulic Fluid (THF) or similar, often specified by brand name. Manual will detail viscosity and properties.
Transmission Fluid Type:
Gear oil, specific viscosity grade (e.g., 80W-90 or 90) for manual transmissions. Manual will specify capacity and type.
Common Wear Points:
Potential issues include wear in the transmission and differential, hydraulic pump wear, and electrical component degradation common in older machinery.
Engine Performance:
Overheating due to cooling system issues, fuel delivery problems due to worn injectors or pumps, and turbocharger wear (on equipped models) are potential concerns.
Hydraulic System Performance:
Slow hydraulics, leaks, or loss of lifting capacity can indicate pump wear or seal failures.
White Farm Equipment Legacy:
White Farm Equipment was a significant player in the agricultural machinery market, known for producing robust and reliable tractors. The brand has a history tracing back to the Oliver Corporation and Minneapolis-Moline.
Series Development:
The '2-series' likely represents a generation of tractors designed to meet evolving agricultural needs in terms of power, efficiency, and technology for their time. These models often succeeded earlier Oliver or Minneapolis-Moline designs.
Production Period:
These models are generally from the late 1970s through the 1980s, a period when White Farm Equipment was operational before acquisitions by AGCO.
Manufacturing Location:
Likely manufactured in the United States, consistent with White's production facilities.
