TC30 Compact Tractor

More value... More choices

TC30 compact tractors offer high performance at a price that fits your budget. And, the New Holland TC30 is the broadest offering of value-priced, 30-horsepower tractors on the market, so you can custom-build a tractor with the exact features you need. No matter how you equip your TC30, you can be sure you're getting the absolute best value for your dollar.


X

Three-cylinder 91.3-cu. in. diesel engine delivers excellent pulling power and durability for the long haul. 
  
A choice of transmissions is something you won't find on many competitive value-priced tractors. The 9 x 3 mechanical transmission provides more speed choices than competitive 8 x 2 transmissions, while the convenient hydrostatic transmission is a New Holland exclusive when compared to most competitive tractors of this class and price range.

Choose a rugged two-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive axle . FWD provides superior pulling power and maximum fuel efficiency in slippery or sandy conditions.

An impressive hydraulic system provides ample flow and a three-point hitch lift of 1,635 pounds—twice what's offered by some competitive tractors—so you can handle heavier, wider implements.

Roomy operator station is designed to allow you to work more efficiently and productively.

Convenient access to service points makes refueling and routine maintenance a snap.

Add a hard-working 7308 front end loader to perform a variety of tasks around your home, farm or workplace.


Agricultural, turf or industrial tires are available to suit your work conditions and traction needs. The R1 "general farming" tires suit a wide variety of agricultural and utility applications. The R3 turf tires provide improved flotation to protect lawns and turf, and are great for mowing parks, golf courses and for some industrial work sites. The R4 "industrial" tires work well in light industrial applications and are the choice of many rental yards, contractors and municipalities. Industrial tires also give you the traction of ag tires and the flotation of turf tires with better wear characteristics than the ag tire on hard surfaces.

Engine

Your TC30 will give you years of dependable, trouble-free performance, thanks to the reliable power and rugged construction of its engine.
 
 


X

Gutsy three-cylinder diesel engine produces reliable power and instant response during tough jobs like plowing, tilling or blowing snow.

Cast iron block and heavy-duty internal components reduce heat and wear during operation for extended engine life and improved fuel efficiency.

A big-tractor backbone of heavy castings for the engine, transmission and rear axles provides exceptional durability.

New Holland warrants that the TC30 engine is designed, built and equipped to conform to applicable U.S. Environmental Agency regulations for a period of use of five years or 3,000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first. 



Transmission 

TC30 tractors offer you something that competitive value-priced tractors don't—a choice of transmissions. If your work tends to keep you in a single gear, choose the economical 9 x 3 mechanical transmission. It offers three ranges for more gear choices than you'll find on competitive 8 x 2 transmissions. Or, choose the convenient hydrostatic transmission—an option not available with many major competitors.


X

9 x 3 Mechanical Transmission
Three ranges—low, medium and high—give you nine forward speeds and three reverse—more speeds than the 8 x 2 transmissions found on competitive brand tractors, so you can find just the right speed to get your job done effectively.

Main gear shift lever is conveniently mounted on the dash. This allows easy entry or exit from either side of the spacious operator platform—without crawling over a floor-mounted shift lever.


Gears are positioned in a simple "H" pattern with reverse in line with second gear, for convenient shuttling when loading, mowing or grading. For increased productivity, second and reverse gears are the same speed.
 
X

Hydrostatic Transmission
Infinitely variable speed from 0 to 14.5 mph lets you choose the perfect speed for every job—and vary your speed on-the-go as needed.

A range lever to the left of the seat provides three working ranges.

A mid PTO is standard equipment on hydrostatic models (optional on 9 x 3 gear models)—a feature that's not even available on some competitive economy tractors, and it's conveniently controlled from the left-hand console.


A simple heel-toe pedal allows you to control both speed and direction. No shifting or clutching required! It's ideal for mowing, loading or blowing snow.
 
X

Hydraulics

New Holland TC30 live hydraulics give you plenty of power and responsive control when using the three-point hitch and remote valves.


X
Three-point lift capacity is 1,635 pounds—that's double what some competitive models offer, which means you can handle heavier, wider implements to make the very most of your working time.
X

A generous 6.1-gpm hydraulic flow provides fast cycle times and plenty of flow to operate a loader, blade or other hydraulically powered implement.

A separate 3.5-gpm steering pump makes responsive steering a given no matter what other hydraulic demands are made on the TC30.



Axles

Whether you choose two-wheel drive (2WD) or four-wheel drive (FWD), the TC30 is engineered to deliver maximum power to the drive wheels and put you in control.
 


X

Induction-hardened rear axles are supported by strong cast housings for maximum dependability with heavy implements and under demanding torque loads.

Sturdy, spur-gear double-reduction final drives minimize driveline loads for trouble-free operation and greater efficiency.


Four-wheel drive boosts drawbar horsepower and reduces wheel slip to improve your productivity in wet, slippery and sandy conditions. And, it helps out with fuel economy, too.
 
X

A mechanical differential lock provides you with extra traction when you need it. If your rear wheels begin to lose traction, simply push down on the heel pedal and both wheels lock together to pull through slippery conditions.

A 540-rpm live PTO meets all your implement performance needs. (2WD models with 9 x 3 mechanical transmission are equipped with a transmission-type PTO system.)

A 2000-rpm mid PTO is standard equipment on all units with hydrostatic transmissions and is also available on mechanical transmission models as a dealer installed attachment. (Note: 2000-rpm mid PTO is required for mid-mount mower and snow blower applications.)

Smooth-applying wet disc brakes are sealed from dust, dirt and water for longer life.  



Operator Station

Step onto the TC30 operator platform and you'll notice the lack of clutter—the openness of the deck. You'll never trip over shift levers again! So sit down and get comfortable. You'll enjoy the view and ease of control. It's a great place to work.
 


X

The 9 x 3 mechanical transmission controls are on the dash, not the floor, so the deck is wide open. It's easy on ... and easy off.

Instrumentation is simple and straightforward for a quick read of your operational status.


A well-padded, contoured seat glides on an inclined track to place you at exactly the right spot to operate comfortably and maximize your visibility.
 
X

An unobstructed view makes your job easier. On the TC30, the muffler is under the hood—not in your line of sight like other tractors.
X

Service

Fueling up a TC30 and performing routine maintenance is quick and easy, so you save time and hassle.
 


X

The hood raises and pivots forward—even when a loader or front blade is attached—providing easy and complete access to the engine, radiator, air cleaner, power steering reservoir and battery.
 
X

Side shields can be removed without tools for further access when required.

All routine service points are conveniently located on the right side of the tractor to simplify maintenance jobs.
 


A handy access door lets you fill the fuel tank without lifting the hood.
 
X

The engine oil dipstick can be pulled without raising the hood or removing any shielding to save you time.
 
X

7308 Loader

Equip your TC30 compact tractor with a 7308 loader and you can move some not-so-compact loads. It handles a long list of chores around farm, home and landscape sites.


X

Heavily reinforced frames and durable chromed hydraulic cylinder rods deliver excellent reliability and long life.

The single, joy-stick control mounts on the loader tower and is positioned to the right of the steering wheel.

Simple, Quick-Attach design allows the operator to easily mount or remove loader without tools.

Construction-grade, heavy-duty, non-rotating pins are used throughout the loader for easy servicing, greater strength and durability. All pins are rifle drilled for lubrication. Rifle drilling protects the grease zerks from damage.

Heavy-duty 60-inch and 68-inch buckets are available for tough working conditions. Both buckets are available with reversible bottom cutting edges for longer edge life.
