Volvo T22

The Volvo T22 is a tractor with historical significance and a sturdy work ethic, recognized by its traditional and robust design. It's powered by a 4-cylinder liquid-cooled Volvo kerosene engine, delivering 22 horsepower with a displacement of 120.8 cubic inches. The engine operates at a rated 1500 RPM and is mated to a transmission that offers 5 forward and 1 reverse gear. While details on this specific model's chassis and drive type are not specified, it may be speculated that, like many tractors from its period, it could have a 2WD chassis. The tires are of agricultural type, with the front tire specification being 5.00-15, which, while not providing the size, suggests standard agricultural tread patterns perfect for a range of farm tasks. The tractor has a substantial weight of 2767 lbs that could be increased to a ballasted weight of 4189 lbs for additional stability and traction when necessary. The physical dimensions of the T22 model enhance its appeal for a variety of tasks, featuring a length of 98.8 inches and a width of 65.8 inches—the size conducive for maneuvering through different farm infrastructures. Starting the engine relies on a 6-volt electric starter system, a typical feature for tractors of its era. Missing data regarding PTO speeds, hydraulic system type, and both manufacture start and end years suggest a need for further historical research or examination of physical records to fully comprehend the capabilities and intended applications for this model of tractor.
