Bolens 1250

The Bolens 1250 is a compact lawn and garden tractor that was made from 1967 to 1969. It's a 2-wheel drive tractor with manual steering and a hydrostatic transmission. This means it's easy to control and can change speeds smoothly without shifting gears.

The tractor is powered by a small, air-cooled Wisconsin S12D gasoline engine. It has one cylinder and puts out 12.5 horsepower, which is on the lower end for tractors but good for lawn work. The engine runs at a very high 3600 RPM, making it responsive for various tasks. The Bolens 1250 weighs 974 pounds, which is heavier than many lawn tractors, giving it good stability. It has lawn tires in front and ag tires in back for better traction on grass.

This tractor has an open operator station, making it easy to get on and off. It starts with an electric starter, which is more convenient than manual options. The Bolens 1250 can use category 0 hitches, allowing it to connect to small implements. It's part of Bolens' Large Frame series, showing it's built for more serious yard work than some smaller models.
