I thinks maybe I was mistaken.. It was a Carraro that he was advertising. Sorry about that. I went back and cut a copy of that listing.
This was on Craigslist. It's not my add though
I am offering tractors built in Italy that were designed and inteded originally for use in the vineyards. Italy is extremely mountainous, and rocky, so these tractors are very hearty and will take 51 degrees of slope,, aka 113% grade before tipping. This is sitting side long to the slope!
They offer a standard 3 point, PTO, extra hydraulics ( for back hoes, and other), have optional cabs, parts & service already located in many Washington locations and growing!
Since the early days of the Antonio Carraro Tractors(1960's) have been made over to also serve in ochards, nurseries, turf farms, golf courses, nut groves, and as commercial landscape machines here in the USA, introduced over 20 years ago.
These are no odd ball, ANY normal implement will work on them, and ANY reversible implement will work on our bi-directonal tractors.
Yep, on some of these models, you can spin the seat, steering and all the controls around and run your brush hog backward into your brush! No more getting tore up and bruised from unruly weeds!
For the listed money the tractor is a 48 Horse (Factory branded Perkins diesel), 4 wheel drive, 4 wheel disc brakes, 12x12 FULLY synchronized shuttle shift) with 540E independant PTO, multi stage clutch, and synchronized at ALL ground speeds. and a 1000 RPM front PTO. The power steering is load sensing, and powered by a pump independant of the 3 point lift.
The tractor has 15 degrees of twist on the front and rear axle and the chassis is an osccilating type.(twists in half) so even on rough ground it will keep it's wheels firmly planted.
These are an amzing tractor that has been being hidden in the food production world. If you could use a tractor like this in your life, and would be interested in having a hands on demonstration please contact me at 509-969-9477, or email me your mailing address with information about what size or horse power class you would be considering and the kind of work you would like to use it for. I will gladly send you a couple brochures for the tractors that fit your jobs.
Our smallest is 35 Horse and our largest is 95 horse
