Acreage owners with upwards of 10 acres to maintain and looking for a viable tractor to handle daily tasks could consider the John Deere 1025R.
Why?
In part because this 25-horsepower sub-compact utility tractor is compatible with over 150 implements.
A few attachments include the 120R loader and its nearly 700-pound lift capacity or Deere’s 54-inch snow blower for winter maintenance.
Rear implement options include the Frontier BB2048 box blade for grading and leveling. Or the John Deere 260B or BH160 backhoes for digging or stump removal.
And the mid-mount mower deck supports the 54D and 60D drive-over decks for lawn care.
The drive-over deck feature allows operators to disconnect mowers quickly.
The 1025R is equipped with a 3-cylinder Yanmar diesel engine, and a 2-range hydrostatic transmission.
The Twin Touch pedals mean operators can switch between forward and reverse without using a clutch.
If you are doing winter work and want protection from the snow or from the heat in the summer, the tractor can be purchased with a factory-installed cab with climate control.
Otherwise, the factory-installed folding ROPS keep you safe while in the operator station.
In the operator station operators will find a seat with deluxe suspension and armrests. And the controls are colour-coded for quick identification.
The loader joystick on the right side of the operator station comes standard with a float function. A bucket lock also helps the bucket stay in the perfect position.
LED headlights and fender lights, tilt steering, and cruise control are also standard on the tractor for additional convenience and visibility.
