New Holland Workmaster Tractors: Perfect For The Adelaide Hills
The Adelaide Hills is a region renowned for the great variety and quality of its produce and is home to a wide range of growers, being
particularly noted for its strawberries, apples, pears, cherries, potatoes
and, of course, wine. For Adelaide Hills growers and farmers, however,
the hills environment can at times be challenging, and they have a need for versatile, utility tractors
that are able to perform a variety of tasks, often in narrow and confined
spaces and on steep or uneven ground.
The New Holland Workmaster series is therefore the perfect compact tractor solution
for growers throughout the Adelaide Hills. They are dependable and adaptable and
able to perform a multitude of different tasks, and so present excellent value for money.
Lewis Construction Equipment, leading South Australian agricultural machinery
dealer, is now able to offer Adelaide Hills farmers and growers the full range of New
Holland Workmaster tractors.
There are four models available — 45hp and 55hp, both in 2WD and 4WD— meaning ample power is available to suit all types of tasks. All models run on a four-cylinder diesel engine, which has timed glow plugs to ensure a quiet and smooth start-up on cold Hills winter mornings. The engines are Tier III compliant and have indirect mechanical fuel injection for quick response, enhanced fuel efficiency and smooth running.
The Workmaster series is especially suited to forklift and heavy duty front-end loader work, especially in the Hills, as they are fitted with a mechanical transmission and a synchronised forward and reverse shuttle, operated by a conveniently located dash-mounted lever. This means that you can move easily between forward and reverse, making it ideal for mowing, moving, baling or
loading work. In addition, this ensures that your tractor won’t roll away when parked on a steep incline or uneven ground, essential when you are parking on a hill or incline with a load of apples or grapes on board, for example.
The gears are arranged in a simple H pattern, one of a number of features that adds to ease of operation. Both the 45hp and 55hp models have four constant mesh gears, each with a high and low range, so you have eight forward and eight reverse gears available, offering speeds of between 2.8kmh to 29.9kmh. This means you can always find the right speed to suit your task, whether it be mowing, slashing or loading.
The Workmaster series features a set of rear hydraulic remote valves for sprayers or for a hydraulic top link, in conjunction with
a three-point hitch set of forks. The Cat I/II link ends, telescoping stabilisers and a swinging drawbar, means it’s simple to hook up and remove attachments. The three-point lift capacity ranges between 1060kg (45hp) and 1430kg (55hp), and there is an independent 540rpm PTO that keeps your three-point implements engaged when changing gears or turning.
A further extremely useful feature of the Workmaster is that it has adjustable rims, meaning that you can choose a wide track setting for additional stability when working on steep or uneven ground in a vineyard or orchard.
Operator comfort is at a premium on the Workmaster, making it perfect for the small-scale operator who’s required to spend long hours at the wheel in testing environs. The Workmaster is easy to climb aboard, and features a deluxe contoured suspension seat which can be adjusted to suit the operator. The sloped hood provides excellent sight lines, while the controls are conveniently dash- and side-mounted. All models feature ROPS, particularly important when working in the Adelaide Hills where you are likely to encounter plenty of steep and uneven ground.
Maintenance of the Workmaster is extremely
straight forward, vitally important for the smaller operator. The one-piece bonnet hood flips up and opens easily, and conveniently placed checkpoints give you straightforward access to service areas. Additionally, engine oil can be checked without raising the hood, while you can fill up with fuel from both the ground and the operator platform.
Overall, for smaller-scale growers and farmers in the Adelaide Hills, the New Holland Workmaster series of compact tractors is an ideal solution that provides reliability and versatility, combined with ease of maintenance and operator comfort, in a package offering real value for money.
