Power is transferred via electro-hydraulic wet disc clutches, ensuring efficient gear transitions under load. The tractor features a permanent four-wheel-drive configuration to maximize surface grip.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system utilizes pressure flow compensating (PFC) technology. The standard pump flow is 35 gpm (132.5 lpm), with a total flow of 42 gpm (159.0 lpm). High-flow and Twin-flow options are available, reaching up to 113 gpm (427.7 lpm) to support demanding implements. The rear PTO is independent and operates at 1000 RPM with a 1-3/4 shaft.
Dimensions and Capacity
This tractor features a 154-inch (391 cm) wheelbase and a base weight of 45,868 lbs (20,805 kg), which can be increased to 66,000 lbs (29,937 kg) with ballast for improved stability.
