More About Tractor Attachments and Implements
Tractor implements and attachments allow your tractor to fulfill a variety of roles, thus eliminating the need to purchase a piece of equipment for every job that needs to be done around the farm. The trick, of course, is finding the right attachments. This guide from 405-Tractor can help make the tractor implement buying process simple and easy to understand.
Think About What Needs to be Done Around Your Farm
At any given time, you’ll likely have about a dozen things that need to be done around your farm. Take a look around, and try to zero in on which tasks are the most difficult and most frequently recurring. Look for implements that can be used to accomplish these tasks. If you’re still having trouble, try talking to other farmers to hear what they recommend.
Start With the Basics
It’s hard to go wrong with basic implements like buckets, tillage equipment, and spreaders. These kinds of attachments are some of the most popular and common on the market in large part due to their versatility. Almost any farm will have some use for these basic implements, though you can feel free to add or subtract from the list as you see fit.
Remember Your Equipment’s Specs
Compatibility is another important factor. An attachment may be perfect for the job you have in mind, but it’ll be useless if it’s not compatible with your tractor. We recommend having a record of your tractor’s specification with you when you shop so that you can compare with the spec requirements on the implements and attachments you are thinking about buying. Don’t forget to factor in tractor weight and whether your model has power take-off (PTO).
