International Harvester TD-5

The International Harvester TD-5 is a multi-purpose tractor that was known for its reliability and robust construction. The TD-5 is powered by a BD-144 International Harvester 4-cylinder liquid-cooled, vertical L-head, natural diesel engine, with a displacement of 144 cubic inches. It operates at a rated RPM of 2000. The transmission offerings include a sliding spur gear with a Torque-Amplifier two-speed power shift, providing 10 forward and 2 reverse gears. While the specific power output in horsepower is not listed, the advanced compression ratio of 21.1:1 for the time suggests an engine robust enough for demanding tasks. The tractor dimensions suggest a relatively compact tractor, with a length of 102 inches, a width of 48 inches (though this value is marked with an asterisk suggesting there may be variations), and a height of 74 inches. Additionally, it carries an operating weight of 6,500 lbs which contributes to its stability and traction. Notably, there is no information provided on its category, drive type, PTO specifications, hydraulic system, and several other key features that would be important for understanding the full range of capabilities of this tractor model.
