Engine Family:
Zetor 52xx/62xx series engines (typically naturally aspirated diesel engines).
Engine Displacement Typical:
Likely in the range of 3.5 to 4.5 liters, depending on the specific model (e.g., Zetor 5711 might have a 3.5L, while 6711 might have a larger displacement).
Engine Configuration Typical:
Inline 4-cylinder or 6-cylinder diesel engines.
Cooling System Type:
Pressurized liquid cooling system with a radiator, fan, water pump, and thermostat.
Horsepower Range Typical:
Estimated 45-75 HP, depending on the specific model designation (e.g., 47xx series likely lower, 67xx series likely higher).
