TRANSMISSION 1

The Zetor Proxima 70 features a synchromesh transmission with 10 forward and 2 reverse gears, providing smooth gear changes and enhancing operator comfort during operations. Its 310mm hydraulic cerametallic disc clutch offers durability and effective power transfer, making it suitable for heavy-duty tasks yet may require careful maintenance to prevent slippage. Ideal for diverse farming applications, the tractor’s gearing allows for versatile speed control, but operators should be mindful of potential challenges in navigating tight spaces due to limited reverse gear options.

TRANSMISSION 2

The Zetor Proxima 70 features a synchronized shuttle transmission, allowing for smoother forward-to-reverse shifts, which enhances maneuverability during tasks such as plowing or hauling. With 12 forward and reverse gears, operators can select optimal speeds for various applications, improving efficiency and capability on uneven terrain. However, the complexity of the synch shuttle may require more maintenance compared to simpler transmission systems, posing a potential challenge for cost-conscious operations.

Gears 12 forward and reverse

TRANSMISSION 3

The Zetor Proxima 70 features a creeper transmission, which is advantageous for tasks requiring precise speed control, such as plowing and cultivating. With 20 forward and 4 reverse gears, operators can select optimal speeds for various applications, improving efficiency and maneuverability in tight spaces. However, managing a higher gear count may require additional operator training to fully leverage its capabilities, especially in complex agricultural operations.

ZETOR PROXIMA 70 TIRES

The Zetor Proxima 70 tractor, equipped with 2WD and standard agricultural tires, is optimal for lighter tasks and limited terrain, offering lower operational costs due to reduced tire wear. However, the 4WD configuration with larger front tires (11.2-24) enhances traction and stability on uneven land, making it ideal for more demanding agricultural applications. Choose 2WD for efficiency in flat fields and 4WD for improved performance in challenging conditions, keeping in mind potential trade-offs in fuel efficiency with the 4WD system.
