Choose between the AutoPower IV or AutoPower VI partial power shift transmissions, offering up to 32 forward and reverse gears for precise speed selection. For ultimate adaptability, the TechStar CVT provides infinite forward and reverse speeds within a two-range system, ensuring the perfect ratio for any application. The electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch ensures smooth engagement and durability.

Hydraulic Prowess for Demanding Implements

Equipped with a closed-center pressure flow compensating (PFC) hydraulic system, the MT535B delivers exceptional power and responsiveness. With a total flow rate of 29 gpm and the capacity for 2 to 4 rear valves, it effortlessly manages a wide array of implements. The robust rear lift capacity of 9,391 lbs (at 24 inches) means this tractor is ready to handle your heaviest tasks with confidence.

Operator-Centric Design for Maximum Comfort

Long days in the field are made comfortable thanks to the MT535B's standard cab, complete with heating and air conditioning. For those seeking the ultimate in operator comfort, optional pneumatic cab suspension and automatic climate control are available, transforming the cab into a true haven of productivity.

Built for Durability and Control

The MT535B is engineered for reliability. Its mechanical features include powerful hydraulic wet disc brakes for confident stopping, power steering for effortless maneuverability, and electro-hydraulic front and rear differential locks for superior traction in challenging terrains. The robust construction, including inboard planetary final drives, ensures this tractor can withstand the rigors of daily farm operations.
