The TD 60 from Tatrac is part of the TD series. Production: 1963–1964. The engine delivers 52 hp (38 kW), has 4 cylinders, with a displacement of 3,400 cm³. Torque is 177 Nm. Rated speed is 2,300 rpm. The machine is 3,890 mm long, 1,800 mm wide and 1,550 mm high. The unladen weight is 2,300 kg. The wheelbase measures 2,000 mm. Ground clearance is 525 mm. Top speed is 20 km/h. Transmission: shuttle transmission 8/8. The engine is air-cooled. Tyres: front 11.2/10 - 24 AS, rear 11.2/10 - 24 AS. The fuel is diesel. The bore measures 95 mm. The stroke is 120 mm. The compression ratio is 20:1. Maximum torque is reached at 1,700 rpm. Construction: Block. The gearbox offers 8 forward gears. There are also 8 reverse gears. Around ca. 300 units were built. Rated output within this group ranges from 2 to 760 hp; the TD 60 sits at the bottom of that range with 52 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the M4800SU below it with 51.7 hp and the Power Major above it with 52.5 hp. Rated output within this group ranges from 5 to 585 hp; here the TD 60 sits at the bottom of that range with 52 hp.

TD 60 (TD series) by Tatrac: air-cooled four-cylinder diesel engine rated at 38 kW (52 hp) at 2,300 rpm, built in 1963 and 1964.

The TD 60 belongs to the class of standard tractors with an air-cooled diesel engine, a design offered by a number of smaller manufacturers in the 1960s alongside the more common water-cooled construction. Air cooling was seen at the time as a rugged, low-maintenance alternative that avoided the need for cooling-water plumbing.

The TD 60 is powered by an air-cooled four-cylinder diesel engine of 3,400 cm³ displacement, delivering 38 kW (52 hp) and 177 Nm of torque at 2,300 rpm. At an unladen weight of 2,300 kg, a wheelbase of 2,000 mm and a top speed of 20 km/h, the machine was built for field work rather than road travel, at a ratio of roughly 60 kg of weight per kW.

Air-cooled four-cylinder engines of this kind, similar to those also common at Deutz and Hatz, tolerate dust and changing outside temperatures well, since there is no cooling water to freeze or leak. The 20 km/h top speed limit shows that the TD 60 was built mainly for field work on small to medium-sized plots, where low road speed was not a real drawback.

On a used TD 60, the condition of the cooling fins on the cylinder block matters most, since with air cooling they must be free of dirt and damage to carry heat away effectively. The clutch and brake system should also be thoroughly checked given the machine's age.

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.
