Brand siblingAllis Chalmers 175
The Allis Chalmers 175 is a row crop tractor made from 1970 to 1980. It's a 2-wheel drive machine with hydrostatic power steering, making it easy to control. The tractor has a partial power shift transmission with 8 forward gears and 2 reverse gears, giving farmers good options for different tasks. Under the hood, the 175 has a Perkins 4.236 diesel engine. This engine has 4 cylinders and is naturally aspirated, which means it doesn't use a turbocharger. It's liquid-cooled and runs at 2000 rpm, which is about average for tractors. The engine size is on the smaller side compared to other tractors. The 175 weighs 7,830 pounds, which is also below average for its class. It has a three-point hitch at the back and a live PTO that runs at 540 rpm, useful for powering attachments. The tractor has an open operator station, but farmers could add a two-post ROPS for safety if they wanted.
