Engine Model Notes:
Specific engine models vary by tractor variant (TM3160, TM3200, TM3240) and market. Typically Iseki's own diesel engines.
Horsepower Range:
Approximately 16 HP (TM3160) to 24 HP (TM3240), depending on specific engine and rating. Check specific model for exact figures.
Torque Notes:
Torque specifications for engine components and reassembly available in the manual.
Injection System:
Indirect Injection (typical for this class) or Direct Injection depending on specific engine.
Oil Type:
API CD or CE classification diesel engine oil (e.g., SAE 10W-30 or 15W-40 depending on climate).
Cooling System:
Liquid-cooled (typically pressurized system with radiator and fan).
Coolant Type:
Ethylene Glycol based antifreeze/coolant with corrosion inhibitors (e.g., 50/50 mix with distilled water).
Transmission Type:
Manual Transmission (Synchromesh) or Hydrostatic Transmission (HST) depending on specific model configuration.
Optional Transmission:
Hydrostatic Transmission (HST) is a common option for increased ease of use and variable speed control.
Pto:
Rear PTO (540 RPM standard), Mid PTO may be optional on some configurations.
Gear Selection:
Manual transmission typically offers multiple forward and reverse gears (e.g., 8F/8R or similar) plus a creeper range.
Transmission Oil Type:
API GL-4 or GL-5 gear oil (e.g., SAE 80W-90) for manual transmission, specific universal tractor transmission fluid (UTTF) or hydraulic fluid for HST and wet brake systems.
Wheelbase:
Varies by model and configuration. Consult specific model specs or manual.
Overall Length:
Varies by model and configuration. Consult specific model specs or manual.
Operating Weight:
Typically in the 2000-3000 lbs (approx. 900-1350 kg) range, depending on configuration.
Towing Capacity:
Refer to operator's manual or specific model documentation for towing capacity, as it depends on hitch type and tractor configuration.
Rops:
Equipped with Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) for operator safety.
Braking System:
Wet disc brakes (typically enclosed and lubricated) for reliable stopping power.
Differential Lock:
Rear differential lock for improved traction in slippery conditions.
Seatbelt:
Operator seatbelt for securing operator to ROPS.
Lighting:
Headlights, tail lights, and work lights for operation in various conditions.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 50-100 operating hours or annually, whichever comes first (refer to manual for exact interval).
Fuel Filter Replacement:
Recommended at specific intervals, e.g., every 200-300 operating hours or as needed.
Air Filter Maintenance:
Regular inspection and cleaning/replacement depending on operating conditions.
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
UTTF (Universal Tractor Transmission Fluid) or ISO VG 46 hydraulic oil is commonly specified. Check manual for exact compatibility.
Hydraulic Fluid Capacity:
Capacity varies by tractor configuration and presence of attachments (e.g., loader). Consult manual for precise amounts.
Common Issues:
As with any tractor, potential issues can include hydraulic leaks, clutch wear (manual transmission), PTO engagement problems, or electrical sensor failures, all of which are addressed in this comprehensive manual.
Grease Points:
Regular greasing of pivot points, PTO shafts, steering linkages, and hitch components is crucial for longevity. Specific points and intervals detailed in the manual.
Manufacturer:
Iseki & Co., Ltd. is a Japanese manufacturer with a long history in agricultural machinery and construction equipment, established in 1926.
