Cultivator (rigid spring)7 to 11 tines
Rotavator1.25 to 1.50 metre

Type & size of implement and gear selections will change with soil conditions and for that you have to visit nearest service center.

There are some jobs which should be performed according to their time to increase performance and life of tractor.

Things to inspect daily or after every 10 hours:

  • Check engine oil level.
  • Check coolant level daily.
  • Drain out water from fuel filters.
  • Grease all lubrication points.
  • Check air pressure in tyres.

Things to inspect after every 50 hours:

  • Check level of transmission-hydraulic oil level.
  • Check MFWD axle oil level.
  • Clean battery & there should be no corrosion on the terminals.
  • Grease front axle pivot pins.
  • Grease steering spindles.
  • Lubricate clutch & brake paddles.
  • Check free play in clutch, brake paddles and fan belt tension.
