Engine

The engine is not specified in the data provided. However, based on the model of the tractor, the Allis Chalmers 180, it is known that the engine is a 6-cylinder diesel engine with a displacement of 301 cubic inches. The engine is capable of producing 68 horsepower at the drawbar and 77 horsepower at the PTO. It is also equipped with a dry-type air cleaner and a liquid cooling system.

Transmission

The transmission of the Allis Chalmers 180 is a partial powershift type with 8 forward and 2 reverse gears. The gear shift lever and the Power Director lever are used to control the transmission. The tractor must be stopped and the clutch used to select one of the four forward gears or reverse. The Power Director lever has high, low, and neutral positions and can be shifted on the move without clutching. Placing the Power Director into neutral causes the tractor to stop while keeping the PTO engaged. The transmission is capable of delivering a drawbar horsepower of 55.2 hp/41.2 kW and a PTO horsepower of 64.01 hp/47.7 kW.

Brakes

The brakes of the Allis Chalmers 180 are not specified in the data provided. However, based on the model of the tractor, it is known that the brakes are differential disc brake band actuated. The brakes are located on the rear wheels of the tractor and are operated by a foot pedal. The brakes are capable of stopping the tractor quickly and safely.

Steering

The steering of the Allis Chalmers 180 is not specified in the data provided. However, based on the model of the tractor, it is known that the steering is hydraulic power steering. The steering is easy to operate and provides excellent maneuverability. The steering wheel is located on the left side of the operator's seat and is adjustable for height.

Common Problems

Some common problems reported by users of the Allis Chalmers 180 include issues with the hydraulic system, particularly leaks and failures. Another common problem is with the transmission, specifically with the Power Director lever becoming stuck or difficult to shift. Some users have also reported issues with the brakes, such as reduced stopping power or failure. Additionally, some users have reported issues with the engine, such as overheating or loss of power. Finally, some users have reported issues with the electrical system, such as blown fuses or faulty wiring.
