New Holland Agriculture has launched its low horsepower range of products, the upgraded TC48R four-wheel drive tractor, for Thailand’s rice farming sector
The compact size of the TC48R tractor is equipped to deliver a powerful performance, new fenders and bigger tires to meet the demand of Thai customers. With a 47 hp 4-cylinder diesel engine and 16x16 shuttle transmissions, this tractor will enable customers to work with a wide range of implements.
TC48R’s draft control lever makes life a little easier when plowing, sub-soiling or using other ground engaging implements by automatically raising the implement just enough to restore normal loading of the tractor for safer operations and extended life span of the tools.
Implements can be mounted to the three point hitch. The PTO features three speeds and is also equipped with an automatic stop feature when the implement rises from the ground.
Full hydraulic power is always available at the remote valves and lift linkage, but only as much as is needed. The variable displacement pump only works on demand, thus reducing fuel consumption.
This compact and solid model is the ideal companion for a wide range of farming tasks thanks to the powerful engine, matched with reliable transmissions, three PTO speeds and other features that make farming more efficient and easier. The seat and steering wheel can be adjusted to a comfortable and ergonomic position for better operations of the driver.
APAM, New Holland’s official distributor in Thailand, which has just inaugurated four new outlets in the first six months of this year, has further plans of extending its strong dealer network to offer a better service to its customers.
