Description
The Zetor 8011 is equipped with a powerful and reliable engine, the Z8001. This engine is a 4-cylinder, 4-stroke, naturally aspirated, liquid-cooled diesel engine. With a displacement of 4562 CC and a borestroke ratio of 110120, it delivers an impressive horsepower ranging from 75 to 80. The engine operates at a rated RPM of 2200, with a maximum RPM of 2500 indicated on the tachometer. The fuel injection pump is inline, ensuring efficient fuel delivery. The compression ratio stands at 17:01, ensuring optimal combustion. The firing order of the cylinders is 1-3-4-2, ensuring smooth operation. Injection timing is set at 24°+2° before top dead center, while the injection pressure reaches 160 atm for precise fuel delivery. The engine is equipped with a centrifugal, full flow type oil filter, ensuring clean lubrication. Valve clearances are set at 0.3 mm for both intake and exhaust in cold conditions. The nozzle type used is DOP 150 S 525 – 1402. While torque and specific fuel consumption (SFC) data are not available, the Zetor 8011 engine remains a robust and efficient choice for various agricultural applications.
Transmission
This transmission consists of single dry disc clutch with 8 forwards and 4 reverse gear option without torque multiplier and with torque multiplier these speeds are doubled means 16 speeds for forwards and 8 speeds for reverse. Torque multiplier (torque multiplier is equipped near steering wheel which reduces speed of gear without disturbing clutch and transmission gears and it is very beneficial when tractor is with full load and suddenly engine starts to drop RPM).
Specifications | Data |
1. Clutch type & size | Single dry disc ( size not available ) |
2. Number of gears | 8 Forwards + 4 Reverse without torque multiplier 16 forwards + 8 reverse with torque multiplier |
4. Clutch paddle free play | 35 to 40 mm |
Gear speeds at engine rated RPM
These gear speeds are without torque multiplier and 16.9/14-34 rear tyer size:
