Ford 1910 Tractor Troubleshooting
The
Ford 1910 compact utility tractor was manufactured between 1983 and 1986. The
Ford 1910 driveline components: Shibaura T853A 3-cylinder in-line liquid cooled
diesel engine and 12x4 unsynchronized gear transmission, or partially
synchronized gear transmission with 12 forward and 4 reverse gears.
A 103.8 cubic inches (1.7 L) engine has a cylinder bore of 3.35 inches
(85 mm), piston stroke of 3.94 inches (100 mm), and rated power of 32 hp
(23.9 kW). Max. forward speed - 13.5 mph (21.7 km/h), max. reverse speed
- 11.6 mph (18.5 km/h).
The open center hydraulic system includes a gear pump with a rated
capacity of 8.6 gallons per minute (32.5 liters per minute). The
hydraulic pressure is 147 bar (2135 psi). The 2WD models are equipped
with 5.50-16 front tyres and 13.6-24 rear tyres. The 27x8.50-15 front
tyres and 18.4x16.1 rear tyres fit 4WD tractors. The wheel base is 66.3
inches (1680 mm) for 2-wheel drive models and 66.9 inches (1690 mm) for
4-wheel drive models.
The Ford 1910 tractor is compatible with the following attachments: a
60" mid-mount 3-blade mower deck, 60" rear-mount 2-stage snowblower with
a hydraulic lift system, Ford 770B loader with a lift capacity to full
height of 1130 lbs (512 kg), and Ford 758A backhoe with a 2-foot flat
digging depth of 94 inches (2380 mm).
