Oliver 770

The Oliver 770 is a row crop tractor made from 1958 to 1967. It's a 2-wheel drive machine with a manual steering system. The tractor has a 6-speed forward and 2-speed reverse transmission, which uses a sliding gear with a dry disc clutch. This setup gives farmers good control over their speed in the field. Under the hood, the Oliver 770 has a 6-cylinder gasoline engine made by Waukesha-Oliver. The engine is liquid-cooled and naturally aspirated, producing 47 horsepower at 1750 RPM. While its power output is below average compared to other tractors, it's still capable of handling many farm tasks. The tractor weighs about 5500 pounds, which is on the lighter side for its class. It has a fuel tank that can hold 16.9 gallons of gas, and its cooling system needs 18 quarts of coolant. The Oliver 770 also features an independent PTO, electric starter, and disc brakes, making it a practical choice for farmers of its time.
