New Holland Offers New TM Tractor Choices

New Holland’s TM Series tractors are now offered in two new configurations with simpler to operate mechanical controls. The new 105-PTO hp TM130 and the 115 PTO-hp TM140 models feature mostly mechanical controls instead of electronic controls to meet the needs of producers who desire simplicity and economy. For example, these tractors feature a two-lever mechanical hitch and draft controls and a push-button mechanical fast raise/lower switch.

The mechanical transmission features four ranges with five synchronized gears per range, with 12 speeds in the 2- to 8-mph working range. A mechanical fully synchronized right-hand forward/reverse shuttle lever enables fast cycle times during loader and blade work.

A high-capacity, open-center hydraulics system gives ample hydraulic flow for full control over both tractor and implement with a 14-gpm implement pump and a separate 10.5 gpm steering pump. The three-point hitch features manual hitch position and draft control.

A mechanical fast-raise-and-lower system raises and lowers the implement with the push of a button. New Holland 7.5L engines deliver maximum power with excellent fuel efficiency and torque response and low emissions. Four-wheel drive is standard equipment on both models. Visit www.newholland.com
