TRACTION
WITH A
LIGHT TREAD
Evan on a soft seedbed a "Caterpillar"
Diesel's broad tracks stay on top of Ihe
toil. Tractor weight is so well distributed
over Ihe tracks thai they act like bridge
planks... and put less pressure on the
sail than a man's foot exerts.
By treading well up on top of soft soil,
tracks have low rolling resistance - less
power needed to move Iht tractor
means more payload powor.
