Engine

The engine is not specified in the data provided. However, based on the model name, Shibaura ST330, we can assume that it has a diesel engine. Diesel engines are known for their durability and fuel efficiency. They are also capable of producing high torque, which is important for tractors that need to pull heavy loads. The engine is likely to have a power output of around 30hp / 22.4kW, based on the information provided for the transmission.

Transmission

The transmission is a 9-speed gear/hydrostatic system. This means that the tractor can be operated in either manual or automatic mode, depending on the preference of the user. The gear system provides more control over the speed and power of the tractor, while the hydrostatic system allows for smoother and more efficient operation. The engine output of 30hp / 22.4kW is transmitted to the wheels through the transmission system.

Brakes

The brakes are wet disc type, which means that they are more durable and efficient than other types of brakes. They are also less prone to overheating, which is important for tractors that are used for long periods of time. The engine is a Shiabaura N843 diesel 3-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a displacement of 91.3ci / 1.5L. It has a bore/stroke of 3.307x3.543inches / 84x 90 mm, a compression ratio of 22.2:1, and a rated rpm of 2800. The starter volts are 12, and the coolant capacity is 5.3qts / 5.0L.

Steering

The steering is power-assisted, which makes it easier to maneuver the tractor. The engine is a Shiabaura 1.5L 3-cylinder diesel engine, which is known for its reliability and fuel efficiency. The fuel tank has a capacity of 7.9gal / 29.9L, which is sufficient for long periods of operation. The two-post folding ROPS cab provides protection for the operator in case of accidents.
