Horsepower Range:
Variable based on specific 235 sub-model and engine configuration (specifics not in product data).
Fuel Delivery:
Diesel Injection System (Specific type like mechanical or common rail not detailed in product data).
Engine Oil Spec:
Refer to manual for specific API classification and viscosity grade (e.g., SAE 15W-40 or 10W-30, common for diesel engines).
Coolant Spec:
Refer to manual for coolant type (e.g., ELC - Extended Life Coolant) and mixture ratio.
Transmission Type:
Likely a mechanical or powershift transmission, common in agricultural tractors. Specific type not detailed in product data.
Optional Features:
May include creeper gears, synchronized shuttles, or powershift options depending on the exact 235 variant. Manual will detail these.
Transmission Fluid Spec:
Refer to manual for specific hydraulic/transmission fluid type (e.g., UTTO - Universal Tractor Transmission Oil) and capacity.
Operator Interface:
Focuses on mechanical and electrical systems; basic operator controls and instrument panel functions are covered.
Diagnostic Tools:
While not 'driver assistance' in the automotive sense, the manual provides the technical information to diagnose and troubleshoot all onboard systems, acting as the primary diagnostic tool.
Diagnostic Ports:
Information on diagnostic ports or procedures for connecting electronic diagnostic tools (if applicable to the 235 model) would be included.
Preventative Maintenance:
Detailed schedules for engine oil changes, hydraulic filter replacement, air filter service, transmission fluid changes, and other critical intervals.
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
UTTO (Universal Tractor Transmission Oil) is a common specification, but the manual will confirm precise requirements and SAE grades.
Transmission Fluid Type:
Often shares specification with hydraulic fluid (UTTO) or may have a dedicated specification. Manual will confirm.
Gear Oil Spec:
Manual will specify the correct gear oil for differentials and final drives (e.g., SAE 80W-90 or 85W-140 GL-5).
Common Wear Items:
Manual likely highlights common wear items such as clutch packs, hydraulic pump seals, PTO components, and certain engine parts, with troubleshooting steps.
