Meet the versatile Reform Metrac
From its roots as the ultimate Alpine tractor capable of carrying out a wide range of farming tasks in steep terrain, the Reform Metrac has evolved to be the power unit of choice for maintaining sloping and banked areas in groundcare and highways applications, with its engine and cab mounted at the centre of gravity in the chassis.
Yet there’s a lot more to the Metrac than just being the market leading slope mower and the company looks forward to discussing its multiple uses with visitors to the show.
The Reform Metrac H70 on show is powered by a reliable 75hp Perkins Stage V engine and offers tractive power increased by 14% compared to its predecessor.
Its two-range hydrostatic drive has a top speed of 40kph with two mechanical off-road reductions, controllable via pedal or drive lever.
Linkage technology is based on a load-dependent working hydraulic system with electro-hydraulic weight compensation; cat 1 and 2 front and rear linkages each have 1500kg lift capacity and front and rear ptos are standard.
Leading contractors utilise the Reform Metrac with rotary and flail mowers, reach arm mowers, harrows, seeders, sweepers, sprayers and spreaders.
A standout feature is the multifunction joystick, integrated into the mechanical drive lever, which allows the selection of front, rear, all-wheel, crab, and offset all-wheel steering modes. This ensures maximum manoeuvrability, especially on slopes and in tight spaces.
Wide, low-pressure tyres ensure maximum traction while maintaining low ground pressures.
Prioritising operator comfort, the new cab design has a full glass door for improved visibility and a wider entry. The air conditioning system has also been updated with mixed air flowing from ventilation nozzles in the dashboard.
The Reform Metrac H70 will be shown with its perfect mowing partner – the Müthing flail, renowned for its exceptional durability and efficient mulching cut and which offers superb results on vegetation from meadows to scrub.
