MORE ABOUT TRACTORS AND FARM VEHICLES

The large manufacturers we stock provide a wide range of machines from small grass cutting tractors to 500HP tracked monsters.

AMTEC also supply ATV’s (All-terrain vehicles), perfect to carry personal and tools around your farm carrying out odd jobs and maintenance.

The term "tractor" is primarily associated with the vehicles used on farms. Farm tractors are utilised to operate agricultural machinery or trailers, performing tasks such as ploughing, tillage, harrowing, planting, and other similar agricultural activities.

 

Choosing the right Tractor

When choosing your second hand tractor it is essential to take into account the following factors such as your land characteristics, the specific operations conducted on it, and the daily tasks that need to be accomplished. This thoughtful consideration will guide you in selecting the appropriate tractor model and the optimal set of implements that align perfectly with your farming operation.

The weight of the tractor itself also comes into play along with the gearing and power.  It is very important to get the right size tractor – if a tractor has more power than you need the engine will go unused and could, therefore, prevent the machine from running correctly.

Selecting the right tractor size

Small tractors (up to 100hp) would be most widely used on small farms for jobs including grass cutting and hauling small trailers.

Medium tractors (100-200hp) would be your multipurpose workhorse, completing tasks from simple grass and hedge cutting to trailer work like field preperation and cultivation.

The larger tractors (250hp+) would be primarily used in the field pulling large cultivators, ploughs and drills etc. perfect for big acreage farms or contractors.

Tractor maintenance includes regular checks of the machine as a whole, specifically the oil and filters. It is good to keep up with regular checks as this can prevent expensive major damage developing.
