New Bi-Directional Tractor
The first thing you notice about Valtra's new bi-directional tractors are the sleek cabs with lots of glass area and sharply sloping hoods for great visibility of front-mounted implements. Visibility is excellent in all directions û whichever direction you're running - and noise levels are extremely low.
  A company spokesman told FARM SHOW that the layout and design of the cab is better than in any other bi-directional tractor because all controls pivot with the operator so they're in the same location no matter which direction you're moving.
  The high-tech tractors û which come in 200, 230, and 260 hp models û have built-in "service diagnostics" which are transmitted back to your farm computer. In the future, the information will go directly to the dealer who will be alerted to upcoming repair needs and can order the parts ahead of time.
  The Finnish-made tractors are not yet on the market in North America.
