Displacement Range:
Likely 3.0 - 3.3 Liters (common for this class of tractor)
Injection System:
Likely Indirect Injection or Common Rail Direct Injection depending on specific model year and emissions standards.
Gearbox Type:
Manual transmission with synchronized gears. Common configurations include 12 Forward + 12 Reverse (12x12) with a creeper range or shuttle shift.
Gearbox Options:
Possible optional powershift (e.g., 24x12) or hydrostatic transmission (HST) depending on specific configurations and markets.
Powershuttle:
Likely available, allowing forward/reverse direction changes without clutching.
Pto Speed:
Standard PTO speeds (e.g., 540 RPM, 1000 RPM, or 540/540E) usually available.
Wheelbase Range:
Variable based on 'V' (Vineyard) or 'N' (Narrow) designation. 'V' models typically have narrower track widths for row crops.
Width Range:
Narrow variants ('N') are optimized for row crop operations and may have widths as low as 1.5 meters (approx. 59 inches) at the narrowest setting.
Operating Weight Range:
Typically 2,500 - 3,500 kg (approx. 5,500 - 7,700 lbs) depending on configuration and implements.
Rollover Protection:
Likely equipped with a ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) frame, either integrated or foldable.
Brake System:
Hydraulic disc brakes, typically wet disc brakes for enhanced performance and longevity.
Seatbelt:
Standard seatbelt on the operator's seat.
Lighting:
Standard headlights, taillights, and turn signals for road use and operation in low light.
Infotainment System:
Basic instrumentation for engine speed, temperature, fuel level, and warning lights. No advanced infotainment systems expected.
Traction Control:
Four-wheel drive (4WD) capability is typically standard or a common option, providing enhanced traction.
Connectivity Features:
No modern connectivity features like Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Focus is on mechanical and hydraulic operation.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 250-500 operating hours, or annually, whichever comes first. Specific interval detailed in manual.
Hydraulic Fluid Change:
Recommended every 500-1000 operating hours. Specific interval and filter change detailed in manual.
Fuel Filter Replacement:
Typically every 500 operating hours or as needed based on fuel quality.
Air Filter Maintenance:
Regular inspection and cleaning, replacement based on operating conditions and indicated by restriction indicator.
Greasing Points:
Daily or weekly greasing of pivot points, PTO, steering linkage, etc., as per manual.
First Service:
First 50-hour service is critical and includes checks on all major systems, fluid levels, and potential adjustments.
Engine Oil Viscosity:
SAE 15W-40 API CG-4 or higher is a common recommendation. Specific grade detailed in manual.
Hydraulic Transmission Oil:
New Holland UTTO (Universal Tractor Transmission Oil) or equivalent meeting NH 410B specifications. Capacity varies by model and configuration.
Coolant Type:
Ethylene glycol-based antifreeze with corrosion inhibitors. 50/50 mix with distilled water recommended. Specific freeze protection level detailed in manual.
Electrical Gremlins:
As with many tractors of this era, some electrical connections or switches may require periodic cleaning or replacement due to environmental exposure.
Hydraulics:
Wear on hydraulic pumps or cylinders can occur with high hours, potentially leading to slower implement response. Regular fluid and filter changes are crucial.
Clutch Wear:
Standard wear and tear on the clutch assembly with heavy use, especially with frequent direction changes or heavy implement work.
Brand Origin:
New Holland is an iconic agricultural machinery brand with roots in the early 20th century, known for innovation and a broad range of farm equipment.
Series Development:
The TN series tractors represent New Holland's commitment to the compact and utility tractor segment, evolving from earlier models to meet specific agricultural needs like specialized row crop farming.
Manufacturing Locations:
New Holland tractors are manufactured globally, with production facilities in Europe, North America, and Asia. Specific TN models may have originated from European plants.
Production Years:
The TN series was prominent in the late 1990s and early 2000s, preceding the introduction of newer generations like the T3000 series.
