The New Holland T6 Auto Command Tractor series features three four-cylinder models— T6.140 (143hp), T6.150 (154hp) and T6.160 (163hp)—which are ideal for work in vineyards in the Adelaide Hills and Barossa Valley. Their exceptional manouevrability and flexibility means that they are equally at home in a vineyard or orchard, or being used for more general agricultural work. These tractors are also notable for their outstanding operator safety and comfort, and the simplicity of their operation.

With an overall operating width of just 2 metres, the T6 is perfect for row crop work and has unsurpassed handling on the headland, while its compact dimensions mean that it can work in tight or confined spaces, making it an ideal machine for

front-mounted implement and loader work. The T6 also also has one of the best power-to-weight ratios in its class, at 30kg/ hp when the EPM is in action, making for less compaction in the field and more costefficient transport work.


Constantly Variable Transmission (CVT) All models of the New Holland T6 feature a Constantly Variable Transmission (CVT), which means they operate most efficiently at the most frequently used speeds, giving greater operational effectiveness and smooth speed changes, both when undertaking work in the field and using your tractor for transport. The synchronised gearbox has two forward gears and one reverse and the speed can be adjusted in 0.01kmh increments, so that specialised tasks such as hand planting can be performed. There are 40kmh and 50kmh models available, making the T6 the perfect tractor for farming operations where frequent transport is required.


The T6 Auto Command manages speed without affecting the power of the RTO, which is run from a direct shaft so that it can be set independently of ground speed. The CVT transmission gives the PTO priority, altering the engine RPMs and reducing ground speed so as to prevent the engine from being lugged down.

The T6 Auto Command has a maximum lift capacity of 7,864kg, and the rear linkage and hydraulics are built to cope with using heavy mounted equipment for long periods of time. This is combined with integral dynamic ride control shock load protection, which means that bounce is significantly reduced when travelling with a heavy load at transport speeds.


Fuel efficient and safe to use on steep ground The T6 Auto Command is also noted for its fuel efficiency, aided by a 80 litre per minute CCLS hydraulic pump, which both delivers oil when it’s needed while also reducing the need to operate the engine at high speed to deliver sufficient flow. This has a positive effect both on fuel costs and emissions and ensures that no matter how hard the tractor is working, the steering remains light and easy to operate. Two mid mount remote valves, which can be used for vine trimmers and barrel pruners, come as standard on the T6 and

are simply controlled from the joystick. In addition, the T6 series features Active Stop-Start technology, whereby the transmission actively holds the tractor in a stationary position, so it is wellequipped for work on steep or uneven terrain, and you can confidently park on a hill or incline with a full load of apples or grapes on board, confident that both tractor and trailer will stay firmly in place.


Command Grip Joystick Ease and simplicity of operation is to the fore on the T6, as it features a force-based Command Grip joystick, where the tractor’s acceleration and speed are determined by the force placed on the handle. The joystick has backlit buttons and is extremely well-placed to sit at the operator’s right hand, and 8 different functions can all be conveniently controlled from it, enabling the operator to control the three-point hitch and two mid-mount remotes, shuttle forward and back, adjust three target speeds (forward or reverse), and operate the cruise control. The T6 features a single raise/lower switch so that an implement can be simply lifted and then returned to its working position at the end of a row or during a headland turn, and the system allows you to record 28 sequenced operations, all of which can be played back at the touch of a button.


Sidewinder Armrest and Horizon Cab Another exceptional feature of the T6 series is the Sidewinder II armrest. Organised so that all key controls are grouped together for ease of operation, the armrest can also be positioned to suit the individual operator. This is accompanied by a fully integrated IntelliView monitor, featuring a colour touch screen that enables parameters to be assesses and altered during operations, and is positioned so as to be naturally within the driver’s line of sight. The Horizon cab offers industry-leading levels of operator comfort, with key controls mounted in the roof, while the air conditioning, Bluetooth radio and control panel are positioned for easy access and operation. The performance monitor on the dashboard gives information on all key operating parameters, and there are also charge points for a mobile and MP3 player. A tinted rear window protects the operator from the sun’s heat, while the cab provides 360 degree visibility. Comfort Ride cab suspension ensures that long hours spent in the operator’s seat are as comfortable as possible.
