Engine Type:
Diesel (typically a 3- or 4-cylinder D-series engine)
Engine Code Examples:
D-236, D-282, DT-282 (DT indicating turbocharged)
Horsepower Range:
Approximately 60-80 PTO HP depending on specific engine variant and configuration.
Torque Characteristics:
Designed for high torque at low RPMs, suitable for heavy draft work.
Fuel Delivery:
Typically Roosa Master or similar rotary injection pump; possible carburetor on gasoline variants (less common for 1026).
Transmission Type:
Manual transmission with multiple gear ratios (e.g., 8-speed syncro-range, or a 12-speed "Power Shift" option).
Power Shift Option:
Select models offered an optional 'Power Shift' transmission (e.g., a 12-speed fully synchronized powershift).
Pto Options:
Standard 540/1000 RPM PTO, often with independent PTO engagement.
Gear Selection:
Synchro-Range transmission typically provided 4 forward gears plus reverse in a main shift, with a range selector.
Infotainment Features:
Basic operator controls, instrumentation (tachometer, temperature, oil pressure, fuel gauge). No modern infotainment systems.
Driver Assistance Features:
None beyond basic mechanical aids like power steering (if equipped).
Connectivity Options:
N/A. Mechanical and electrical connections only.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 100-150 hours or annually. Specific interval depends on operating conditions.
Fuel Filter Replacement:
Recommended at oil change intervals or more frequently if fuel quality is poor.
Air Filter Service:
Check and clean/replace as needed, typically every 50-100 hours, more often in dusty conditions.
Engine Oil Type:
API CD or CE rated diesel engine oil, SAE 15W-40 or 30W depending on ambient temperature.
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
IH Hy-Trans fluid or equivalent UTF (Universal Tractor Transmission fluid).
Transmission Fluid Type:
IH Hy-Trans fluid or equivalent UTF (Universal Tractor Transmission fluid).
Common Wear Points:
Clutch wear, hydraulic pump wear, front axle kingpin wear, PTO clutch pack wear.
Electrical Gremlins:
Older wiring harnesses can degrade, leading to intermittent electrical issues.
