FARMTRAC REVEALS A BEST-SELLER FOR A COMPACT PERFORMANCE
21st July 2022
As Farmtrac’s dealership has expanded, one thing that has become apparent across the country is the popularity of the FT26 and FT26H tractors, distributor Reesink Agriculture reveals. It appears the appeal is universal for those who need results in smaller areas.
The FT26H with AgriMetal debris blower keeps all areas clean of leaves and rubble.
Owning a smaller piece of land doesn’t mean you need less power, but it does mean you need to think about the size of your tractor. That’s where Farmtrac’s FT26 and FT26H come in: the perfect options to get the job done in tighter areas without compromising on results.
The differences between the two models start and end with the FT26 sporting a three-range hydrostatic transmission instead of a mechanical one. All the rest of the performance possibilities of each are the same.
So, what exactly makes this diesel duo so popular? Steven Haynes, tractor sales manager for Reesink Turfcare, explains: “The popularity of these models stems from their light and narrow body that effortlessly fits in tighter indoor spaces, as well as their short turning radius which makes them highly manoeuvrable and opens them up to multiple audiences – such as smallholdings, equestrian centres and growers.
Powerful and with highly fuel efficient three-cylinder engines, a choice of two transmission options including a three-range hydrostatic transmission with mid PTO bring the performance, but what about operating them?
And they’re powerful enough to handle fieldwork, boasting an impressive 750kg lift capacity at hitch point. Both the FT26 and FT26H deliver class-leading performance while offering serious value for money.

Both models feature a wider platform with side-mounted shift gear levers, easy to view dash panel, power steering and four-wheel drive, which can be selected when maximum traction is required. Add in high intensity projector lamps, side-mounted led lights, top-mounted beacon lamp and rear-working lamp mean work isn’t curtailed in winter months.
With no clutch system on the HST model, clutch wear is not a concern and with two directional pedals to deal with – one for forward direction and one for reverse – there’s less fatigue for the operator. Moreover, the FT26H comes equipped with cruise control as standard, making it easy to set a certain forward speed with just a push of a button.
For added peace of mind, they come with a robust five-year warranty, supported by Reesink Agriculture, the award-winning UK distributor renowned and trusted for its servicing, maintenance and back-up.
