Hesston 780

Last Updated: June 2024

Overview

The Hesston 780, marked as an utility tractor, is characterized by its 4x2 2WD chassis design and power steering that contributes to its easier handling. At its heart, a liquid-cooled Fiat 8045 diesel engine with a displacement of 224 cubic inches demonstrates a straightforward and reliable power source which is naturally aspirated. The engine operates at a rated 2500 RPM, although the horsepower remains unspecified. It employs a partially synchronized transmission that has been mentioned with different configurations, with some discrepancy in the number of gears; this needs further clarification. A three-point hitch system is also confirmed, being of Category II, which allows for a variety of implements. Models are available with different lengths and operating weights, varying with 2WD and 4WD configurations, and the tractor can be equipped with either an open station or with ROPS/Cab, all providing adaptable solutions for various farming tasks. Despite information on tire sizes and some other specifications being unavailable, the tractor's base specifications suggest it's capable for a range of utility tasks on a farm.
