Lubrication System and Tractor’s Classification topics include: Lubrication system, tractor classification details, tractors types, numerical problems on tractor parameters, forced feed system principles and tractors selection process. Here are some lubrication systems used in tractors: Splash lubrication system: In this system, a dipper at the bottom of the connecting rod picks up oil from the oil sump or pan and moves it up to the engine components. Force feed lubrication system: This system uses a gear type pump driven by the camshaft to generate pressure and ensure oil reaches all... Show more
