The 7600 (A) is powered by a water-cooled four-cylinder diesel engine of 4,186 cc, producing 94 hp, or 69.1 kW, at 2,100 rpm. At a weight of 2,771 kg, a length of 3,689 mm, a height of 2,537 mm and a width of 2,051 mm, with a wheelbase of 2,223 mm, the machine reaches a top speed of 30 km/h.
A four-cylinder engine of just over 4.1 litres and 69.1 kW belonged, in the 1970s, to the upper mid-range of field tractors, built for tillage with larger implements, working with heavier trailers and a wide range of tasks through the power take-off. The weight of 2,771 kg provided adequate grip for drawbar work in the medium to upper power range. The power take-off on such tractors typically runs at the standardised 540 rpm, allowing a wide range of PTO-driven implements to be used.
When buying a Ford 7600 (A) secondhand, the condition of the clutch and gearbox, the cooling system of the water-cooled engine, and the injection pump and injectors of the diesel engine matter most. Also worth checking are corrosion on sheet-metal and frame parts and the brakes, and on such an old model the condition of seals and rubber hoses; spare parts for this common Ford series are readily available on the open market.
