Mowing on steep slopes: ensure the right equipment!

The Right Tractor for Steep Slopes

When it comes to selecting a tractor for working on steep slopes, stability is of utmost importance. Our AGT Mountain Tractors are specifically engineered for these challenging conditions. They feature an improved center of gravity that enhances stability and safety when operating on demanding terrains. Additionally, the tractor’s wide construction further contributes to its stability, allowing for safe and efficient mowing even on the steepest gradients.

With competitive pricing and prompt delivery, HUILI Machinery hopes to become your trusted supplier and partner.

Selecting the Appropriate Tires

Choosing the right tires is crucial for ensuring safe and effective operation. For steep slopes, we suggest using grass or agricultural profile tires, commonly referred to as balloon tires. These tires provide optimal traction, making them ideal for tackling larger inclines. We also offer the option of dual tires, which further enhances the tractor's stability and reduces the risk of slipping on slick surfaces.

Suitable Attachments

Attachments designed for steep terrain should be lightweight and versatile. For mowing in mountain farms, we recommend utilizing lightweight front mowers equipped with floating hydraulics. This technology allows the mower to adjust to the terrain, significantly reducing its weight by 70% and bolstering the tractor's stability.

Safety Tips

• Regular Maintenance: Conduct regular maintenance on your tractor and attachments to ensure optimal performance and safety.
• Proper Use: Adhere strictly to the manufacturer's guidelines for the operation and maintenance of the machinery.
• Education: Stay informed about safety protocols and best practices for working on steep slopes.

Conclusion

Mowing on steep slopes can be a daunting task, yet with the right technology and equipment, the process becomes safer and more manageable. At Agromehanika, we take pride in our AGT Mountain Tractors, offering stable and secure solutions for working on challenging terrains thanks to their enhanced center of gravity. It’s essential to carefully consider which agricultural machinery to select, ensuring you choose equipment that guarantees both safety and efficiency.

Working in mountainous terrain involves contending with irregular plots, steep inclines, and a fluctuating range of situations daily. Consequently, selecting the right tractors is vital for mountain haymaking. These machines need to not only be efficient and reliable but also exhibit exceptional stability and ground adherence.

Moreover, the quality of the work is paramount; since production levels in mountainous areas are often lower than in flatlands, it is crucial to compensate for reduced output with superior quality of the resulting fodder.

BCS offers a line of isodiametric tractors featuring a reversible driving position and wide wheel track, making them invaluable for mountain haymaking. These tractors are not only highly specialized but also guarantee stability and safety across all types of terrain.

The inclusion of 4-wheel drive maximizes traction and facilitates effective engine braking during downhill operations.

The low center of gravity, wide platform, and the engine's high elasticity enable easy navigation of the steep variations characteristic of mountainous landscapes.

All models come equipped with the exclusive OS-Frame chassis, allowing the fore-carriage to oscillate up to 15° relative to the rear-carriage, thereby stabilizing the setup on uneven ground and ensuring maximum adherence of all four wheels.

The strong aptitude for mowing operations is reinforced by the incorporation of the Dual Floating System®, together with hydraulic suspension that features a nitrogen accumulator. This optimizes the load distribution of the attachments applied to the third point, allowing for effective ‘floating’ operation.

A reversible driving position also enables exceptional visibility of the attachments, particularly during mowing, facilitating the completion of border areas safely and effectively.

Low-compaction tread tires prevent damage to the grass, while the spacious air-conditioned cab guarantees unmatched driving comfort.
