It features a 4x2 2WD chassis and is powered by a Fiat 8365-25, 6-cylinder, liquid-cooled, turbocharged diesel engine with a displacement of 494 cubic inches. The tractor operates at a rated RPM of 2200. With a hydrostatic power steering system, it offers operators a comfortable driving experience. This model comes with a 12-speed or potentially a 24-speed forward transmission and has 8 reverse gears, with questions surrounding the possibility of a discrepancy in the data about transmission gears. The tractor rolling on agricultural tires is designed with a wheelbase of 116.8 inches and an operating weight of 13,448 lbs when unballasted. The 1880's dimensions contribute to its sturdy presence in the field, having a length of 171.8 inches and a cab height of 115.5 inches.
