The rear hitch is designed for significant loads, offering a standard lift capacity of 18,918.9 lbs (8581 kg), with an optional configuration increasing capacity to 23,681.7 lbs (10742 kg). The rear power take-off (PTO) operates at both 540 and 1000 RPM, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of external agricultural equipment.
