agco_rtAGCO RT Series tractors equipped with the new 6.6 litre AGCO engine expand the power range available in the RT Series from 100 to 155 hp with the RT100A, RT120A, RT140A and RT155A. The new engine runs quieter, thanks in part to its solid one-piece design and its lighter connecting rods that produce less vibration. At partial load and in cold weather, the new AGCO engines run even quieter due to the viscous fan drive that only operates under load and as engine temperature increases. The AGCO engines also run cleaner and require less fuel, thanks to effective charge cooling, high efficiency injectors and a superior combustion chamber design. The turbocharged Tier II engine produces more power and torque with fewer emissions. The precise engineering specifications make it possible to extend the oil change interval to 500 hours, saving operator time and expense. A major contributor to AGCO engine efficiency is Electronic Engine Management (EEM), which provides fast response to changing engine loads and allows the operator to set two custom engine speeds. EEM provides more power, lower emissions and improved economy by continuously adjusting the amount and timing of fuel injection. All four of the new RT Series tractors are available with PowerMaxx CVT™ (continuously variable transmission) for maximum power and infinite travel speed selection. All controls are ergonomically placed for easy access.
