Hydraulics and Handling

The hydraulic system is equipped with a pump flow capacity of 67 gallons per minute (253.6 lpm) and a system capacity of 51 gallons (193.0 L), facilitating the operation of heavy implements. Steering is managed via a hydraulic power system, and the tractor is equipped with hydraulic brakes to ensure controlled deceleration.
