Mingsin MX254-Y Mini-Tractor: Power, Reliability, and Versatility in One Package

The Mingsin MX254-Y mini-tractor represents the optimal combination of performance, off-road capability, and functionality. It is powered by the proven 385 model three-cylinder, four-stroke diesel engine (24 HP), which has established itself as one of the most reliable and fuel-efficient solutions in its class. This same engine is successfully used in machinery from renowned brands like Dongfeng and Lovol, attesting to its high quality and serviceability.

Thanks to its mechanical transmission with 8 forward and 2 reverse gears (8+2), the tractor offers exceptional operational flexibility—ideal for slow-speed cultivation or faster transport tasks. The gearbox is known for its precise shifting and durability, sharing components with popular Dongfeng models.

Special attention has been paid to off-road performance:

• 4×4 Full-Time Drive paired with a rear differential lock ensures confident operation even on difficult, wet, or uneven ground.

• An optimal weight distribution of 45/55 (front/rear) provides excellent stability and ground grip.

• A substantial wheelbase and an operating weight of 1250 kg—significantly higher than most competitors in its class—make the MX254-Y an ideal platform for heavy-duty implements and wide rotary tillers.

Oversized tires (Front: 6.00–16, Rear: 9.50–24) further enhance ground clearance and operator comfort on rough terrain.

Key Technical Features and Advantages

• Hydraulic System: Standard hydraulic control valve for the three-point hitch, plus two additional hydraulic outlets with quick-connect couplers for easy attachment of external mechanisms like sprayers or hydraulic mowers.

• Power Take-Off (PTO): Dependent, two-speed (540/1000 rpm), 6-spline shaft compatible with a wide array of trailed and mounted equipment.

• Rear Hitch Capacity: Up to 480 kg, sufficient for most private, farming, and municipal tasks.

• Hydraulic Power Steering: Features an independent hydraulic circuit, significantly reducing steering effort and improving maneuverability.

• Adjustable Suspension Seat: Ensures operator comfort during extended work periods.

• LED Lighting: Provides bright and energy-efficient illumination.

• Front and Rear Counterweights: Included as standard to ensure balance when using heavy implements.

• Trailer Socket: Standard fitment for towing trailers. (Note: Built-in air compressor is not standard per technical specs).

Chinese-Made 25 HP Compact Tractor: The Ideal Choice for Small-Scale Farming and Garden Work

Main Characteristics

• Smoother and Easier Control: Hydraulic power steering ensures soft and comfortable handling. For 4WD models, a fully hydraulic steering system is available, making steering noticeably easier and more pleasant. The compact body and small turning radius (2.8 m for 2WD, 3.0 m for 4WD) enhance maneuverability in tight spaces.

• Differential Lock – Excellent Off-Road Capability: The mechanical rear differential lock significantly improves traction on rough or slippery terrain. A robust frame, built with proven technology, guarantees reliability and a long service life. The integrated ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) effectively safeguards the operator in the event of a rollover.

• Classic Transmission Setup: The standard transmission offers 8 forward and 2 reverse gears (sliding-mesh type). An optional creeper gear can be installed to double the number of available speeds, providing better torque for demanding tasks. An alternative transmission with 10 forward and 2 reverse gears (shuttle shift) is also available, offering up to 20 forward and 4 reverse speeds with the creeper gear for precise speed control. The speed range spans from 0.32 to 38 km/h, covering all needs from field work to road travel.

• Hydraulic Output – Superior Versatility: The standard ROPS ensures operator safety. A sun and rain canopy is also provided, allowing work to continue in all weather conditions without interruption.
