The machine is available in either two-wheel or four-wheel drive, allowing for improved traction management depending on soil conditions and terrain.
Hydraulics and PTO
Equipped with a rear power take-off (PTO) capable of operating at both 540 and 1000 RPM, the tractor maintains compatibility with a wide array of implements. The rear hitch system provides a lift capacity of 6615 lbs (3000 kg), enabling the handling of heavy mounted equipment.

The tractor features a wheelbase of 102.76 inches (261 cm) and an overall length of 171.26 inches (435 cm). The operating weight varies by configuration, with the standard model weighing 8125 lbs (3685 kg) and the four-wheel-drive version reaching 8886 lbs (4030 kg), contributing to its stability during field work.
