Last Updated: June 2024

Overview

The Oliver 1800 Series A is a 2WD row-crop tractor, produced by Oliver in Charles City, Iowa, between 1960 and 1962. Equipped with a choice of two Waukesha-Oliver engines, either a 4.6L six-cylinder diesel or a 4.3L six-cylinder gasoline, it was designed to cater to the needs of the period's agriculture. This series features power assist steering and disc brakes, enhancing the operator's control and safety. The tractor is available with either a gear-type transmission with dry disc clutch offering 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, or a Hydra-Power partial power shift transmission with 12 forward and 4 reverse gears. The tractor boasts an open operator station for comfort and ease of access. With significant power, convenient handling, and essential functionalities like independent rear PTO capable of 540 or 1,000 rpm, the Oliver 1800 Series A remains a valuable asset to those still operating it for their farming needs.
