White Farm Equipment Workhorse series – US large tractors 125, 145, 170 and 195 from the 1980s, six-cylinder diesels from 91 to 143 kW, type numbers matching the horsepower class
The Workhorse series was built by White Farm Equipment, the US tractor maker formed in the early 1970s from the merger of the Oliver, Minneapolis-Moline and Cockshutt brands under the White Motor Corporation. The 125, 145, 170 and 195 type numbers in this series clearly match the engine power in horsepower: the power figures recorded in the register, roughly 122 to 192 hp, line up almost exactly with the type sequence. All four models are built as six-cylinder diesel tractors in the upper US power class.

The register lists four versions here with 91.2 to 143.4 kW from six-cylinder diesel engines with 5,891 to 8,283 cm³ displacement. Rated speed is 2,200 rpm, unladen weight ranges from 5,557 to 6,169 kg with lengths from 4,420 to 4,572 mm, widths from 2,438 to 2,945 mm and heights from 2,977 to 3,048 mm.
In this power class, the Workhorse series targeted large North American arable farms of the 1980s and competed directly with the large tractors from John Deere, Case IH and International Harvester on the US market.
When buying used, check the condition of the clutch and powershift transmission, tightness of the hydraulic system given the high lift capacities of this class, corrosion on the wings and cab frame, and parts availability, which for the White Farm Equipment brand, defunct since the 1980s, runs mainly through specialist used-parts 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.
