The hydrostatic transmission is where this tractor really shines. No more clutching or shifting; the 1025R’s transmission lets you focus on getting work done instead of fighting with controls. And after a long day maintaining your property, you'll appreciate how the power steering saves your arms and shoulders.

A comfortable operator station is essential for those sunrise-to-sunset workdays. The three-point hitch system opens up many possibilities and works with dozens of implements that turn this one tractor into your complete property management solution. Add the front-end loader capability, and you've got material handling covered, too.
