Overview

1971 - 1976

66 Series

Row-Crop tractor

Production

Row-Crop tractor

Built in Rock Island, Illinois, USA

Original price was $21,100 in 1976

The hydrostatic drive 1066 Hydro was later renamed the Hydro 100. This was due to confusion over drawbar horsepower. The hydrostatic drive took a lot of power to operate, and the 1066 Hydro had much less power than a gear-driven 1066. Torque Amplifer (TA) was optional. The 1066 engine was altered in 1973 to increase horsepower.
