Engine Specifications
|
Primary Engine
|
Engine Manufacturer:
|
Ford (or a contracted engine supplier for Ford New Holland)
|
Engine Type:
|
Diesel, 4-cylinder, naturally aspirated or turbocharged (specific model dependent).
|
Displacement:
|
Exact displacement would vary by specific engine option fitted to the 755B, typically in the range of 2.5-3.9 liters (e.g., Ford Genesis, Shibaura based engines).
|
Performance
|
Horsepower:
|
Horsepower ratings would typically be in the range of 50-70 HP, depending on the specific engine and configuration.
|
Torque:
|
Torque figures would align with its horsepower rating, optimized for pulling power and loader/backhoe operation.
|
Fuel System
|
Fuel Type:
|
Diesel
|
Injection System:
|
Likely direct injection, with mechanical fuel pump and injectors.
|
Dimensions
|
Exterior
|
Length:
|
Approximate length would be around 6-7 meters including the backhoe, depending on the boom extension.
|
Width:
|
Width varies with tire size and loader bucket, typically around 2-2.5 meters.
|
Height:
|
Height to the top of the ROPS or cab would be around 2.5-3 meters.
|
Weights
|
Operating Weight:
|
Typically in the range of 5,000-7,000 kg, depending on configuration and attachments.
|
Loader Lift Capacity:
|
Loader lift capacity would be a critical spec for its intended use, likely in the range of 1000-2000 kg to full height.
|
Backhoe Digging Depth:
|
Backhoe digging depth capability would typically be in the range of 3-4.5 meters.
|
Maintenance
|
Service Intervals
|
Engine Oil Change:
|
Typically every 250-500 hours of operation, depending on operating conditions.
|
Hydraulic Fluid Change:
|
Recommended every 1000-2000 hours, including filter changes.
|
Greasing:
|
Regular greasing of pivot points, loader/backhoe linkages, and steering components is critical (daily to weekly).
|
Fluid Specifications
|
Engine Oil:
|
API CG-4 or CH-4 rated diesel engine oil, viscosity typically 15W-40 (consult specific manual for exact spec).
|
Hydraulic Fluid:
|
Universal Tractor Transmission Oil (UTTO) or a suitable hydraulic/transmission fluid meeting Ford New Holland specifications (e.g., NH-410B or similar).
|
Coolant:
|
Ethylene glycol-based antifreeze mixture, typically 50/50 with distilled water, providing freeze and corrosion protection.
|
Transmission Fluid:
|
May share hydraulic fluid specification (UTTO) or require a dedicated transmission oil depending on the gearbox design.
|
Known Issues
|
Hydraulic Leaks:
|
Common with age and usage, particularly at cylinder seals, hoses, and manifold connections. The parts manual is crucial for identifying correct seal kits and hose part numbers.
|
Wear On Pivot Points:
|
Pins and bushings in the loader and backhoe joints are subject to wear, leading to play and reduced performance. The parts manual identifies these specific components.
|
Electrical Connections:
|
Corrosion or loose connections in wiring harnesses can lead to intermittent issues with lights, starter, or instrumentation.
