New Holland Agriculture has officially launched its newest tractor range, the T4 Powerstar in the country which according to the company has been designed with operator comfort in mind.
The product was launched in the global market in 2011 but didn’t
hit Australian shores until later in 2012.
Models in the new line-up include the T4.55, T4.65 and T4.75;
prodcuing powers of 55HP, 65HP and 75HP respectively.
Maximum comfort
According to New Holland, the new range has been redesigned with
fully integrated ergonomics to provide operators with maximum
comfort.
Cab design was studied using virtual reality techniques to
ensure that controls were comfortably within reach for any
operator.
Principle controls have been shifted to the right side in an
ergonomic “Command Arc” to reduce fatigue and increase
precision.
Hydraulic remotes included in the Arc provide optimal hydraulic
performance while the joystick has been designed around operator
productivity that eliminates the need for operators to stretch and
twist their arms and wrists.
Super flat flooring , along with several other redesigns which
include suspended pedals, dual zone air conditioning system,
relocation of fans etc offers more space and comfort to the
operator for long days in the cab regardless of the weather
outside.
The new range also features a new cab design which gives
operators maximum visibility in order to work with confidence.
With the instrument cluster which moves in conjunction with the
fully tiltable steering column and wide-opening glass doors,
operators benefit from unobstructed views of their work area and
are able to enter and exit the cab with ease.
A roof hatch built into the cab that can be partially or fully
opened gives operators the perfect view of loaders at full
extension.
A deluxe air suspension seat, fitted as standard equipment on
the tractors was designed to enhance operator comfort with its 15
degree swivel ability to reduce neck and back strain when using
rear-mounted equipment.
Other features of the T4 Power star range include:
- 12×12 transmission standard with a hydraulic power
shuttle allowing operators to shift from forward to reverse without
clutching - Shuttle lever conveniently positioned on the steering column
for quick, fingertip manoeuvring. - Designed and customised to be used with New Holland’s AP loader
