Ford New Holland 4040 Tractor Parts

The Ford New Holland 4040 was produced from 1983 to 1986 as part of the Ford 40 Series tractors. It was designed as a utility tractor capable of handling various agricultural tasks. The engine was typically a Shibaura 2.7L 3-cylinder diesel engine producing approximately 52 PTO horsepower. This engine provided a good balance of power and fuel efficiency for farm work. Transmission options included a gear-type transmission with multiple speeds, allowing the operator to choose the optimal gear for the task at hand. The PTO operated at 540 RPM, suitable for powering a variety of implements like rotary cutters, balers, and tillers. The hydraulic system had a capacity sufficient for operating loaders and other hydraulically powered equipment. The 3-point hitch was a Category II, capable of lifting implements of moderate weight. Common farming applications included row crop cultivation, hay production, livestock operations, and light tillage. The 4040 distinguished itself from other models in the lineup by offering a solid mid-range option that was more powerful than smaller utility tractors but more economical than larger row crop tractors.
