Specification
Features&Advantages
Slenderer in Size than AN1304
Extremely compact
Its ultra-narrow design (1.72M) and shortened length allow the utility tractor to fit easily into standard greenhouses, dwarf orchard groves, narrow country roads, etc.
Maneuverability and flexibility
The utility tractor has a short body, with an extremely small turning radius, and is very flexible to turn back and make turns in a small space (eg, under a tree of an orchard/at the end of a greenhouse), so it improves work efficiency greatly.
Low-position Design
This utility tractor’s height of 2.72 meters is lower than that of conventional tractors with a cab, making it more suitable for operations in spaces with limited height.
Sufficient Power and Good Fuel Economy
Great Traction under Economic Fuel Cost
The traction of utility tractor AN1404 is about 2.4 tons, a reasonable match for its 85-horsepower (approximately 62.5 kW) engine. Since this farm tractor is not used for heavy-duty plowing, but mainly for pulling small to medium-sized agricultural implements do to the tilling, furrow sowing, weeding, and transportation, such traction force is all necessary. Thus, we can ensure good fuel economy for you.
Practical PTO Power
A PTO power of approximately 85 horsepower means that the farm tractor can not only drive most small to medium-sized agricultural equipment, but also avoid the higher purchase costs and fuel waste caused by excessive power output. This makes the utility tractor AN1404 ideal for medium-sized family farms and professional growers.
Excellent PTO and Hitch System
Powerful Hydraulic Lifting Capacity
The utility tractor is manufactured with a lifting force of over 20KN at 610mm. It is ample to support medium-sized agricultural implements such as heavy-duty rotary tillers and fertilizer spreaders. This enables the quick and powerful penetration of the soil by the agricultural tools, as well as lifting.
Specially Designed PTO Speed
The 760 rpm speed is mainly used for driving farm implements such as rotary cultivators, so that the utility tractor AN1404 can reach the best working state-rpm truth, and complete soil crushing. Other optional arrangements yet provide users with their continued variety of types of agricultural implements.
Professional Wheel Structure
Fixed Wheelbase
Compared to the AN1304, the utility tractor AN1404 is equipped with a fixed wheelbase. And the structure of the wheel has been simplified. It can save some costs in manufacturing to offer you a lower price. This wheelbase configuration of this utility tractor has been optimized for standard orchard row spacing and greenhouse operations. It is a “purpose-built” 4WD tractor, so you don’t have to make any modifications.
Wider Rear Tire
Larger rear tire contact area increases ground traction and reduces soil compaction. It makes the utility tractor AN1404 a perfect machine for working in vegetable fields and fruit farms.
Ultra-long Range Ability
Its massive 145-liter fuel tank is a significant advantage of this utility tractor. As a result, its continuous working hours are long without judging, suitable for large-scale and long-term operation, such as rotary tillage day and night all year round, and long-distance transportation operations can effectively improve operational efficiency and convenience.
Challenges&Solutions
Increasing Cost
Rising fuel costs, the shortage of skilled operators, and the high cost of employing them, along with machine downtime, all directly reduce profits.
How to solve this question with AN1408?
Reduce downtime for refueling: The 145-liter fuel tank means longer continuous work time with this utility tractor. After fueling for only once, you can cover more hectares of work. By reducing the number of trips to the fuel station, your daily effective working hours can be directly increased.
Precise power matching: The 16F+8R Shuttle transmission of the utility tractor supports you in finding the most suitable combination of speed and power for the current task. This avoids fuel waste caused by using low gears at high speeds or high gears at low speeds. By doing so, we can ensure that every liter of fuel is used efficiently for productive work, thus significantly reducing fuel consumption per hectare.
Poor Compatibility
Modern agricultural equipment is developing to be larger and heavier. Tractors that are not compatible with modern equipment may result in poor performance, so as to limiting your return on investment.
How to solve this question with AN1408?
Powering large implements: The 62.5 kW PTO capacity of this utility tractor can easily provide full power to even the most energy-intensive implements, such as large balers and straw shredders. This ensures they operate at their maximum design efficiency to achieve high-quality results.
Hauling heavy equipment: A lifting force over 20 kN supported by this utility tractor means you can attach and use the heaviest, most complex farm equipment, such as hydraulic reversible plows and precision seeders, without worrying that the hydraulic system can not support them well.
Efficient traction performance: The great traction force of 23.7 KN guarantees that the utility tractor can provide sufficient pulling power during heavy-duty tasks like deep tillage and plowing. You will not be afraid of wheel slippage or stalling when processing those works.
Terrain limitations
It is a laborious task to manage this uneven or inaccessible terrain during the later period of crop growth ,which does not yield results and resulting shrinkage in final production.
How to solve this question with AN1408?
Crop management at mid-to-late period:
The 460mm high ground clearance is one of its core advantages, enabling the utility tractor to get into and out of the field quite smoothly in mid-to-late growth stages of crops such as corn, cotton, or sugarcane, to finish soil mulching, weeding, and fertilizer application tasks.
The crops will not be damaged or injured so long as the utility tractor is operating. By doing this recipe, you directly expand your agronomic choices and contribute to the final yield.
Operation in challenging terrain: The high clearance of the utility tractor means the tractor can ride smoothly over rough, rocky, or uneven ground. This greatly lowers the risk of damage to the chassis and protects your investment.
Precise and effortless control: The hydraulic steering system in the utility tractor provides smooth and precise control in all these complex environments. With less fatigue, operators can still keep relaxed and focused even after long-term operation.
Concern for Equipment Reliability
Unexpected downtime caused by equipment failure can disrupt the entire production schedule and result in significant losses.
How to solve this question with AN1408?
Designed for heavy-duty tasks: The overall structure and high ground clearance of the agricultural tractor are professionally designed for heavy-duty operations. Additionally, the key components of this utility tractor AN1404, including the transmission and rear axle, are designed to last. All of them are designed to reduce the risk of malfunctions.
Efficient cooling system: The large-capacity 14-liter cooling system in the utility tractor AN1404 provides high cooling ability to keep the engine and lubrication oil cooler at ideal temperatures even under severe environments with continuous full load operation. This is important in preventing overheating and related malfunctions. This system will provide years of convenient service at the utility tractor level of use.
