Mahindra JIVO 245 DI: engine, transmission, hydraulics and farm-use details

Technical specifications

Engine figures and what they mean

For the JIVO 245 DI, the useful distinction is between torque, rated speed and engine power. The 85 Nm torque entry describes turning force; it does not establish fuel consumption per acre. The power line on this manufacturer page is a range, so this article preserves it as a bracket instead of silently converting it to a single horsepower number. Ask for the delivered engine identification and a workload demonstration with your own implement.

Transmission and field workflow

The listed transmission for the JIVO 245 DI is Sliding Mesh, paired with 8 F + 4 R. These figures describe the available forward and reverse selections; they do not mean every ratio is appropriate for every operation. During a demonstration, check whether the working gear holds the desired pace without excessive clutch slipping. Also identify the exact clutch option on the quotation: a slash between alternatives in a specification table should not be read as two systems fitted simultaneously.

Hydraulics, PTO and implement matching

The 750 kg hydraulic entry for the JIVO 245 DI is a lift-system rating, not a trailer payload allowance. An attachment also needs compatible linkage geometry, adequate stability and the correct PTO arrangement. The page identifies the PTO as 540, 540 E; obtain the operating-speed explanation for the exact version before connecting driven equipment. A heavier implement cannot be approved solely because its mass is below the headline lift figure. Transport position, ballast and the attachment manual still matter.

Check the4WD configuration behind the name

The page heading calls this JIVO 245 DI while its specification identifies 4 WD. It lists 85 Nm, two cylinders and 750 kg hydraulic lift. Keep the drive description on the signed quote so the abbreviated model heading cannot cause confusion when comparing older advertisements or a dealer stock listing.

Delivery checks tied to this specification

Two entries to carry into the JIVO 245 DI delivery inspection are Rear tyre: 210.82 mm x 609.6 mm (8.3 in x 24 in); PTO speed or system: 540, 540 E. Match these to the machine being supplied rather than to a photograph in a general brochure. Where an alternative is written in the table, have the supplier mark the selected option. This is particularly useful when two dealer quotations use the same model name but include different equipment. Keep the dated configuration sheet with the invoice so future parts enquiries refer to the delivered specification.

Price status and a useful ownership calculation

A verified model-specific ex-showroom price for the JIVO 245 DI is not available in this article. Record a local quote with the exact configuration above, then separate registration, insurance, transport and optional attachments. For ownership planning, use your observed diesel consumption for the intended work and the service schedule supplied with that configuration. Do not turn an overall manufacturer price range into a price for this tractor, and do not present an assumed state tax percentage as a confirmed on-road charge.
