TRANSMISSION
The Leader N 16-32 tractor features a simple gear configuration, offering 2 forward speeds and 1 reverse, ideal for straightforward agricultural tasks and light operations. This limited gear selection can enhance ease of operation but may restrict speed variation and power management for complex tasks. Operators should consider this when planning for varied terrain or field operations requiring diverse speed control.
