Minneapolis-Moline A4T-1600

The Minneapolis-Moline A4T-1600 tractor was a large, four-wheel drive (4WD) model designed for extensive farming tasks. It featured a Minneapolis-Moline manufactured engine that came in two variants: one was a 9.6L 6-cylinder diesel with a displacement of 585 cubic inches, and the other was an 8.3L 6-cylinder LP gas with a displacement of 504 cubic inches. Both versions had a power output of 169 hp, operated at a rated RPM of 2200, and utilized a liquid cooling system. This tractor's steering was supported by hydrostatic power assistance, providing smooth handling despite the machine's hefty weight of 19,850 lbs. Its power was managed through a manual transmission with 10 forward and 2 reverse gears. The tire setup was variable, with options including 18.4-34 inch agricultural tires both front and rear as standard, with 23.1-30 inch agricultural tires as an alternate setup, indicating its versatile footing in various agricultural environments. With dimensions of 234 inches in length, 96 inches in width, and 116 inches to the top of the exhaust, the A4T-1600 possessed a significant presence in the field. Its open operator station was straightforward but effective, and its rear-positioned Category III/II three-point hitch demonstrated significant utility for a wide range of attachments and implements.
