Oliver 88 Row-Crop

The Oliver 88 Row-Crop model is a versatile tractor designed predominantly for row-crop work, which is evident from its nomenclature. The tractor features a Waukesha-Oliver engine that comes in two variants: a 3.8L 6-cylinder gasoline engine and a 3.8L 6-cylinder diesel engine. Both engines sport a 231 cubic-inch displacement and a common bore and stroke of 3.50 inches by 4.00 inches, rated at 1600 RPM. However, they differ in air cleaner type and compression ratios—6.75:1 for the gasoline and a significantly higher 15.0:1 for the diesel, indicating the diesel's nature of handling higher compression. The tractor employs a gear-type transmission with 6 forward and 2 reverse gears, coupled with a dry disc clutch. The Oliver 88's dimensions are typical for the category, with a length of 141.875 inches, a width of 68 inches, and a height of 69 inches, while the operating weight is 5000 lbs. The reported coolant capacity is 18 quarts. Designed to tread between crop rows effectively, the tractor exhibits front treads of 21/30 cm and adjustable rear treads spanning from 119 to 231 cm. Additional specifications about wheel configuration, hydraulics, PTO speeds, hitch lift capacity, and operating station type are not detailed in the provided data.
