AGCO DT250B
The AGCO DT250B is a powerful row crop tractor built from 2009 to 2010. It has a strong 6-cylinder diesel engine made by AGCO SISU POWER. This engine is very big for its class and can produce 290 horsepower, which is a lot of power for a tractor. The DT250B has four-wheel drive and uses a special transmission that gives it infinite forward and reverse speeds. This tractor is big and heavy, weighing 25,960 pounds. It has a three-point hitch at the back that can lift very heavy loads, up to 26,460 pounds. The DT250B has a closed center hydraulic system, but its pump flow is lower than average for tractors like this. It comes with a comfortable cab that has both heating and air conditioning. The tractor is 215.7 inches long and 141 inches tall, making it a large machine for serious farming work. It can use both front and rear power take-off (PTO) systems, which run at 1000 rpm.
