Equipped with two-wheel drive, the tractor features power steering to enhance maneuverability. The operator platform is an open station with a 15-inch seat. Stopping power is provided by internal wet disc brakes. The machine includes an independent mid-PTO system with an electric clutch for efficient engagement of the 42-inch mower deck.
