Top speed is 25 km/h. Transmission: 12 V/4 R, 20 V/8 R and 12 V/12 R. The engine is water-cooled. Tyres: front 7.50-18 ASF (DT: 13.6-24 AS), rear 16.9-34 AS. The fuel is diesel. The bore measures 103 mm. The stroke is 110 mm. The compression ratio is 17:1. Maximum torque is reached at 1,400 rpm. Construction: unit construction (no separate frame). The 66 er-Baureihe series covers 4 models. Rated output within it ranges from 54 to 78 hp; the 766 (DT) sits at the top of that range with 78 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the 666 (DT) below it with 68 hp. Unladen weight within it ranges from 2,280 to 2,730 kg; here the 766 (DT) sits at the top of that range with 2,730 kg. 99 Fiat Trattori models across 9 series are on record.

Fiat Trattori 66 series – field tractors of the 1980s: three- and four-cylinder diesels at 2,592 to 3,664 cc, 39.7 to 54.7 kW, types 466, 566, 666 and 766 (DT)

The 66 series followed the earlier model generations at Fiat Trattori in Turin during the 1980s, covering the mid power class with the four types 466, 566, 666 and 766; the leading digits mark the ascending power step, and the ending 66 the series itself. Here too the DT suffix denotes the four-wheel-drive version with Doppia Trazione, while the base versions ran rear-wheel drive only.

The register lists 4 versions with 39.7 to 54.7 kW from three- and four-cylinders of 2,592 to 3,664 cc displacement at 2,500 to 2,600 rpm; torque ranges from 170 to 262 Nm. Unladen weights lie between 2,280 and 2,730 kg, lengths between 3,222 and 3,622 mm, widths between 1,920 and 2,050 mm, and heights between 2,355 and 2,435 mm.

The 66 series tractors were aimed at medium-sized arable farms and competed directly with the contemporaneous models from Same, Lamborghini, Landini and Ford of similar power class; after the merger with Ford in the early 1990s the series was phased out under the new brand logic.

On a used purchase, check the condition of the clutch and gearbox, the tightness of the hydraulics, and corrosion on wings and bonnet; on DT four-wheel-drive versions also check the condition of the front axle and its joints, and parts now run through independent agricultural machinery dealers.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
  • Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
