Key Features

• The new unit was designed with the mechanic in mind, to reduce, simplify, and increase access to all scheduled maintenance. The majority of scheduled maintenance projects can be accessed by lifting the operator seat. For increased access, the side and center quarter panels can be taken off by removing just a few bolts.
• The 3WD Series/Parallel™ traction drive improves traction in wet or heavy working conditions to get the job completed quickly. In traditional 3WD units all traction effort is lost as soon as one wheel slips. Series/Parallel™ ensures that you always have tractive effort with at least one wheel to keep your unit from getting stuck and losing precious time.
• Quick connect hydraulics make it simple to connect or disconnect any of the powered attachments in under a minute. This eliminates the need for dedicated equipment.
• For operator ease of use, and to improve the effectiveness of the steerable front attachments, hydraulic power steering is now available on the 5040 and a rugged gear drive system on the 3040. Both designs are now environmentally sealed to ensure long life and reduced maintenance.
• The trusted Vanguard® engine is fuel efficient, runs cooler and features a fully pressurised oil lubrication system for longer life.
• Easy to use and adapt to the next task. Having the right tool for the job increases the effectiveness of your crew and the efficiency of your operation. Attachments are designed to minimise operator influence to achieve the same result, regardless of whether a new or veteran employee performed the task.
• Fingertip operation (no overhead bar), paired handle/foot pedal and torsion bar to improve down pressure provide level/consistent contouring in difficult areas. Quick-up latch locks blade in transport position between uses to improve operator ease of use.
