More horsepower

Tractors are versatile tools. They can help you move your plants or pallets around the nursery, deposit fertilizer or take care of weeds.

When you consider tread and attachment options, you can find a tractor that is designed to tackle any terrain or any task. Here are a few:

Steiner 440 4x4
The Steiner 440 tractor is designed to deliver with focused aggression. It features a non-permeable all-steel fuel tank and oversized filler neck with tethered fuel cap and 200-watt halogen quartz front headlights. Three wheel offerings (featuring Bar, Turf and Field Trax Tread) with rugged five bolt 10-inch rims. The 440 has a 12-volt 525 CCA battery (630 CCA on diesel engine model). It utilizes 4-wheel and all-wheel drive, and articulating power steering with an oscillating frame.

Yanmar Lx490
In March, Yanmar America rolled out its new Lx HST series compact tractor, featuring a state-of-the-art hydrostatic (HST) transmission.

The new HST transmission gives users a car-like feel while maintaining the power and efficiency that are required and customers depend on for performing heavy-duty functions. And, the Lx HST Series tractors come equipped with powerful, quiet, low-emission 41, 45 and 49 horsepower Yanmar diesel engines, making the flagship Lx HST series tractors even more versatile.

The HST transmission has a high range for travel speed, medium range for mowing and a low range for hard-pull applications and loader work. And the Lx HST tractors are powered by specially-designed, direct-injection or turbo diesel engines, which yield lower emissions and higher reserve torque for more usable horsepower.

JCB New Generation
JCB has recently added eight new small platform machines to its New Generation line: 135, 155, 175, 190 and 205 skid steers, as well as the 150T, 190T, and 205T compact track loaders. The smaller models are more maneuverable in tight, confined areas and transport easily to other job sites. The 135, 155 and 150T machines feature radial lift and the 175, 190, 205, 190T and 205T models offer vertical lift. All models have a side-entry door, allowing operators to enter and exit without climbing over any attachments. The design also increases the operator’s visibility to 270 degrees. Operator compartments come with a standard mechanical suspension seat with an option for a heated, air suspension seat with adjustable arm pods.

KIOTI DS3510
Based on the same field-proven chassis and componentry as the KIOTI CK35, the KIOTI DS3510, a 34-horsepower compact utility tractor, offers many of the same high quality features while looking out for the end user strapped by today’s challenging economy.

The DS3510 features the same powerful yet fuel-efficient 34-hp Daedong diesel engine plus a constant-mesh shuttle transmission with eight forward and eight reverse gears. Like the CK35, this model offers four-wheel drive, power steering, wet disc brakes, rear differential lock, a comfortable and adjustable seat, foldable ROPS, seat belts and a choice of ag, turf or industrial tires.

A 27.6 PTO horsepower and heavy-duty three-point hitch enable a full complement of quality implements and attachments. The hitch itself can comfortably and safely lift up to 2,238 pounds at a point 24-inch aft of the hitch.

Available options include front and rear counterbalancing weights, a canopy and a single remote hydraulic valve in addition to an exceptional range of implements and attachments.
