A super-specialized articulated tractor designed for work in tight spaces and among row crops (orchards, vineyards, nurseries), both on the flat or slopes. With equal size wheels and reverse drive, this tractor offers unmatched agility and superb handling. The low center of gravity and integral ACTIO™ oscillating frame ensure constant grip and stability even over rough, steep gradients.
The ergonomic controls simplify any task, reducing operator fatigue and stress. The reverse drive function enhances operational versatility, enabling the use of specific implements for ploughing, pruning, spraying, towing and materials handling.
Available with a choice of two propulsion units: the 71 hp Yanmar (7800 S) and the 85 hp Kubota (9900). Available with a range of different hydraulic packages and configurations, with tire sizes ranging from 18" to 24", final drives positioned horizontally or at 45° to the vertical.
Available with the optional Starlight cab, for maximum visibility and interior luminosity combined with total operator comfort. The streamlined design of the cab also helps the tractor slip easily between crop rows.
StarLight Cab
CLOSED CAB
StarLight is the Antonio Carraro closed cab assembled on Silent Block anti-vibrating device. It is equipped with front/rear windscreens, total-glass doors, double sunroof with sunscreens and portholes with view on wheels and devices, thanks to which it offers on-board brightness and total visibility. The smooth design is functional to its performance through side-sloping rows or underfoliage. StarLight's compactness allows agility in the most narrow spaces with neither fruit nor flowers damage. The soundproof clothing of the driver's station grants acoustic comfort. The main controls are in ergonomical position. The ventilation system features a rapid front windscreen defogging system. he incoming air is cleaned by a large filter, with an available activated carbon filter. The air-conditioning is achieved by a powerful system running on ecological coolant, which also refreshes the cabin air using a low rev motor. The heating system utilizes a powerful heat exchanger which is most exceptional even in the coldest weather. The roof can be opened to lift the electric fans for quick maintenance intervention. StarLight offers also two rear and two front lights – all adjustable. Two adjustable rearview mirrors, foldable plate holder, glovebox, electrical setup and speakers for stereo system, are other details of the onboard comfort of Starlight. As every Antonio Carraro cab, Starlight is certified as anti-capsizing device.
RGS™
RGS™ Rev-Guide System, the AC reversible driving system on a rotating turret, inverts the driving direction in just a few seconds to allow efficient operation with towed or frontal equipment. The operator simply turns the seat/steering wheel/dash/pedal assembly through 180° for an identical, but reverse, driving direction. On tractors with Joystick*, all the auxiliary controls remain conveniently positioned. The RGS™ system is an integral part of the tractor’s multifunctional character, simplifying use and improving the precision and quality of performance.
e-DRIVE TRANSMISSION
MAXIMUM EASE OF DRIVING The new transmission houses the e-DRIVE system complete with synchronizer assembly, servo controls and range shift and reverse shuttle control unit.
e-DRIVERANGE SHIFTING* The driver can shift through the speed ranges comfortably and without effort at the simple touch of a button.
e-DRIVEREVERSE SHUTTLE* The e-DRIVE reverse shuttle with control lever under the steering wheel comes in handy for operations involving back and forth movements in rapid succession, such as loading and unloading of material with forklifts, loaders or snow blades. The driver is assisted by an electronic system, which enables him to operate the tractor under the safest conditions without ever taking his hands off the steering wheel.
