The John Deere 1030 tractor was built in Germany during the seventies (from 1973 until 1979). The tractor gets it’s power from a 3 cylinder engine. This engine uses a liquid cooling system and has a total power output of 46 hp. The engine has a total volume of 2.7 liters. The engine is built into a 4X2 2WD chassis. It has a choice of 2 different gearboxes to transfer power from the engine to the rear wheels. The first gearbox choice gives the driver 16 speeds going forwards and 8 for reversing. The other choice gives the JD 1030 half this amount, 8 speeds traveling forward and 4 for reversing.

The engine also powers the hydraulic system on the John Deere 1030 tractor. This system has a flow rate of 46.9 liters per minute (12.4 US gallons per minute). This gives the rear hitch a maximum lifting capacity of 1825 kg (4024 lbs). The engine gets it’s fuel from a tank that can hold a maximum of 62.1 liters (16.4 US gallons) of diesel. The JD 1030 tractor weighs in at 2700 kg (5954 lbs). It’s height from the ground up to the top of the exhaust (that comes with the tractor as standard) is 2.43 m (96 inches). The tractor is 3.37 m (133 inches) long and has a wheelbase of 2.04 m (80.7 inches).

The rear wheels on the John Deere 1030 which power it each measure 12.4-36 (12.4 inch width, 36 inch rim diameter) and the front wheels which are responsible for steering it each measure 6.5-16 (6.5 inch width, 16 inch rim diameter).
