TRANSMISSION
The Square Turn 18-35 tractor features a [-|-] friction disc, providing improved torque transfer and smooth engagement, which is advantageous for precision tasks. The infinite forward and reverse gear system enhances maneuverability in tight spaces, making it ideal for diverse agricultural applications. However, the friction disc may require more frequent maintenance compared to traditional systems, especially under heavy load conditions.

MECHANICAL
The Square Turn 18-35 tractor features a 3x2 2WD chassis, making it suitable for flat terrains but limiting its performance in steep or muddy conditions. The bull gear final drives enhance torque delivery, which is beneficial for heavy-duty applications, although they may limit speed due to their design. The open operator station offers better visibility but lacks protection from the elements, impacting operator comfort during prolonged use.
