Ford New Holland 276II Tractor Parts

The Ford New Holland 276II was part of the line of tractors that Ford New Holland released with improvements on prior models, manufactured in the late 1980s. The engine was often a Shibaura diesel, with horsepower in the 60-70 range. Displacement varied slightly depending on the specific configuration but usually fell between 170 and 200 cubic inches. These models came standard with a gear transmission, typically offering either an 8-speed or 12-speed forward/reverse configuration, providing ample options for different field conditions. The PTO delivered around 55-65 horsepower, available at 540 RPM, enabling effective operation of implements like rotary cutters, balers, and tillers. Hydraulic systems on the 276II offered around 8-10 GPM of flow, adequate for operating loaders and other hydraulically driven equipment. A Category II 3-point hitch provided a lift capacity suited for handling implements. The 276II was frequently employed in row crop operations, hay production, livestock management, and light tillage. What distinguished it from other models was its balance of power, simplicity, and affordability, making it an attractive option for small to medium-sized farms.
