MECHANICAL

The Iseki TX2160 tractor features a versatile 4x2 and 4x4 MFWD option, enhancing traction in varied soil conditions, ideal for small to medium agricultural tasks. Its manual steering may require more operator effort compared to power-assisted systems, which could affect maneuverability in tight spaces. The mechanical dry shoe brakes are simple and reliable but may offer less stopping power compared to hydraulic brakes in demanding scenarios.
