Each ArmaTrac tractor also has its own air compressor allowing an external air line, as well as powering a double circuit trailer braking system.
ArmaTrac's dust-proof, ergonomic, two-door, cab provides high-visibility, air-conditioning options to tropical standards and a height and tilt adjustable steering column for driver comfort. External hydraulic lift and PTO control buttons are also fitted.
"ArmaTrac tractors are designed, engineered and built with simplicity and efficiency in mind," said Mrs Erkunt-Armagan. "We are always listening to farmers' needs, wants and dreams and try to apply their thoughts to our innovations and developments.
"An example is ArmaTrac's fuel economy, consuming less than one litre of diesel to plough 920 square metres."
