John Deere MT

Last Updated: September 2024

Overview

The John Deere MT is a row crop tractor made from 1949 to 1952. It's a small, simple machine built for working in fields with rows of crops. The tractor has two big wheels in the back and two smaller ones in front, with an open seat for the driver.

Under the hood, the MT has a small gasoline engine with just two cylinders. It can produce about 21 horsepower, which is below average for tractors. The engine is cooled by liquid and breathes in air naturally without any extra help. The tractor has a basic gear system with four forward speeds and one reverse. It can go up to 11-12 miles per hour at its fastest. The MT also has a power take-off that spins at 550 rpm, which can run other farm tools. It weighs about 3,233 pounds, making it quite light compared to many other tractors.
