Engine

The engine is not specified in the data provided. However, based on the transmission specs, we can infer that the engine is a FIAT diesel 2-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a displacement of 69.5ci / 1.1L, bore/stroke of 3.347x3.937inches / 85x 100mm, compression ratio of 21.5:1, and a rated power output of 21.13hp / 15.8kW at 2300 rpm. The engine is started using a 12-volt starter.

Transmission

The transmission is a sliding gear type with 6 forward and 2 reverse gears. The engine power is transmitted to the transmission through a belt with a claimed power output of 19.31hp / 14.4kW. The transmission is designed to work with the engine to provide the necessary power and torque to the wheels. The transmission is a critical component of the tractor that determines the speed and efficiency of the tractor.

Brakes

The brakes are not specified in the data provided. However, based on the engine specs, we can infer that the tractor is equipped with hydraulic brakes. The hydraulic brakes are designed to provide reliable and efficient stopping power to the tractor. The brakes are activated by pressing the brake pedal, which sends a signal to the hydraulic system to apply pressure to the brake pads. The hydraulic system is powered by the engine and is designed to provide consistent and reliable braking performance.

Steering

The steering is a FIAT 1.1L 2-cylinder diesel engine. The steering system is designed to provide precise and responsive steering control to the tractor. The steering system is activated by turning the steering wheel, which sends a signal to the steering system to turn the wheels. The steering system is critical for maneuvering the tractor in tight spaces and for maintaining control of the tractor at high speeds.

Common Problems

Users have reported issues with the chassis of the Fiat 231R, specifically with the 4x2 2WD configuration. The chassis is prone to cracking and bending, which can lead to instability and reduced performance. Additionally, users have reported issues with the 6-speed transmission, specifically with the gears slipping and difficulty shifting.

What Users Like

Users appreciate the agricultural tires on the Fiat 231R, specifically the 4.00-15 front tires and the 9-24 rear tires. The tires provide excellent traction and stability, even in wet and muddy conditions. Additionally, users appreciate the compact size of the tractor, which makes it easy to maneuver in tight spaces and transport to different locations.
