Compact steering reversible tractor with constant variable transmission

Features may include:

THE FUTURE IS NOW

A 98 hp Kubota engine, with technological content of the highest level and a software-controlled hydrostatic transmission. This software allows the operator to customize all aspects of his work, taking into account the implement used and preferred driving style, so as to optimize and simplify operating procedures.

An isodiametric steering compact tractor (an alternative to the articulated model TONY SR) with reverse drive that guarantees superb operator comfort thanks to the hydrostatic transmission that, by eliminating use of the clutch, significantly simplifies the job of the operator.

It is a dynamic and versatile machine, designed for precision farming applications, such as crop spraying and all operations that require a constant working speed to achieve perfectly consistent results, thereby avoiding any waste of material (in the case of spreading operations) or working time. Operating procedures are made easier, even when working in the tightest spaces, and on uneven ground or slopes.

The reversible driving position means that the tractor can work with countless different types of implement.

The transmission has 4 electronically-controlled speed ranges, which can be engaged both when stationary and on the move, with 3 acceleration modes for each range and 3 for each range in Automotive mode.

The software also provides diagnostics for the tractor, which is continuously monitored to ensure maximum working efficiency in every situation.

In spite of the compact dimensions, the driving position offers a high level of comfort, with access facilitated by the absence of levers on the central transmission tunnel.

Available with the latest generation Air pressurized cab, also in a Category 4 version (guaranteed protection of the operator against inhalation of harmful dust, aerosols and vapors).

Many functions on the display with one objective in mind: a top level compact tractor for perfect performance.

The ITAC operating system is made up of four main functions:

• 1) FUNCTION CONTROL > monitors temperature, pressure, sensors, engine revolution uniformity according to the task being carried out (Torque Control).

• 2) FUNCTION SETTING > allows certain parameters to be set such as the tyres and direction via the WHEELS SETTING,DRIVE DIRECTION, FAST REVERSE functions.

• 3) SAFETY CONTROL > which constantly verifies the working order of the software itself.

• 4) TMC SYSTEMv TRACTOR MANAGEMENT CONTROL > represents the man-machine interface system. The TMC provided the operator with all the possible automatic tasks available.

The short wheelbase and tight steering radius make the tractor extremely agile in crop rows. To further reduce the turning radius, the steering brakes can be utilized, while accentuating the “superbend” effect obtained thanks to the double-acting constant velocity joints. The front wheel on the inside of the curve naturally increases the steering angle without the vehicle being allowed to stick. The smooth and sensitive hydroguide steering wheel assures precise maneuvering on steep slopes, in crossways movements, in narrow paths, among crop rows and in car parks. The hydraulic system of the hydroguide uses the Load Sensing system to obtain a constant flow of manoeuvrability independent of steering speed.
