Drive
Exclusive Technology
All available models are homologated within Europe as farm tractors, with trailer towing capacity of up to 21 tonnes where permitted by national road regulations. The rear mechanical PTO provides two speed ratios (540 and 1000 rpm), for the operation of powered agriculture implements. The portal type axles, designed and built by Merlo, ensure better ground clearance than traditional designs and were conceived exclusively for use on Merlo telescopic handlers. The electronically controlled hydrostatic transmission ensures a rapid and stable travel speed. The front tool-holder carriage, complete with its Tac-Lock hydraulic locking system, ensures instant interchange of attachments - directly controlled from the cab. 4000 kg capacity rating and hydraulic servo-assisted controls facilitate the use of many types of agricultural implement.
Tool-carrier carriage
The Tac-Lock quick attachment fitting system is hydraulically controlled from the cab. Standard double-acting hydraulic service, with quick couplings, for the operation of hydraulically powered attachments.
Steering
Four drive/steer wheels, with automatic wheel synchronisation in the event of any misalignment and selection of three steering modes from the cab.
Transmission
Hydrostatic with electronically controlled variable displacement pump. Continuous and automatic speed variation, from zero to maximum speed, via the accelerator pedal. Two-speed range gearbox. Inching-Control system providing infinitely variable control of travel speed, irrespective of the engine speed. Finger-Touch system makes it possible to change between forward and reverse direction, with the driver keeping both hands firmly on the steering wheel. Permanent four-wheel drive. Rear axle differential locking. Portal axles ensuring excellent ground clearance.
Braking system
Disk service brakes on all 4 wheels, hydraulically operated and acting on the differential output shafts. Disk parking brake with automatic locking feature and hydraulic release control, acting on the main transmission shaft.
Electrics
12 V system with 100 Ah battery and 90 A alternator. Full road lighting and rotating beacon. Four working lights on the cab (two front lights and two rear). Manual battery isolator switch (optional automatic switch).
