Designed for versatility and performance in residential and landscaping applications, this model features a robust four-wheel drive system and is powered by a liquid-cooled gasoline engine.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is equipped with a 745 cc, 2-cylinder V-Twin engine with fuel injection, delivering a gross power output of 25 hp (18.6 kW).

Steering is facilitated by a power steering system, and braking is managed through wet disc brakes.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system operates at a pressure of 1000 psi (69.0 bar) with a total flow capacity of 6.2 gpm (23.5 lpm), supporting two valves for implement control. The tractor includes an independent rear PTO (540 RPM) and an independent mid PTO, both engaged via an electric clutch to provide flexible power delivery to various attachments.
