Last Updated: June 2024

Overview

The International Harvester 560 is a classic, standard-tread tractor that was produced from 1958 to 1963. It comes with a choice of two engines: a 4.6 L six-cylinder diesel or a 4.3 L six-cylinder gasoline or LP-gas engine, each capable of delivering 72.5 horsepower at 1800 rpm. The tractor is equipped with a range of transmissions, including a sliding gear and a partial power shift known as the Torque Amplifier, offering a total of 5/10 forward and 1/2 reverse gears. Emphasizing simplicity and functionality, the IH 560 features an open operator station, manual or optional hydrostatic power steering, and an independent mechanical disc brake system. This model was adept for a variety of tasks on the farm, accommodating attachments through its IH Fast Hitch and providing a reliable PTO system operating at 540 rpm.
