Lanz HM8

Last Updated: September 2024

Overview

The Lanz HM8 is a simple and sturdy tractor built for basic farm work. It has a 4x2 2WD chassis, which means it has two big wheels in the back that push it forward. The steering is manual, so you use your arms to turn the wheel and guide the tractor.

This tractor has a single-cylinder engine made by Lanz. It runs on kerosene and is cooled by liquid to keep it from getting too hot. The engine is quite large, with a displacement of 233.1 cubic inches. It can produce 8 horsepower at 500 rpm, which is enough for light farm tasks. The HM8 weighs 2,760 pounds, making it a fairly light tractor. It has a category 3 hitch, which lets it connect to different farm tools. The tractor has a basic gear transmission with one forward gear and one reverse gear, so it's easy to operate but not very fast.
