 2 SERIES

THE ULTIMATE 2.
Get to know the ultimate 2, our 2 Series Tractors. These tractors
are tough, small farm tractors, park path maintainers and
sidewalk cleaners. Homes with large properties to take care
of can find help here too. There are three models in the series.
Choose from:

THE 23.9 HP (17.8 KW) 2025R.

This sub-compact utility tractor is engineered to manage just about
any task—from mowing and clearing brush to loader work and trench
digging. What’s more, the optional factory-installed, heated cab makes
all-day snow clearing, all-day comfortable (page 8). Turn to page 4 for
more on the 2025R.

THE 31.2 HP (23.3 KW) 2032R

AND 36.7 HP (27.4 KW) 2038R.
Now, perhaps, you have a bit more of a project to chew on. The 2032R
and 2038R provide greater speed and more capacity to handle larger
implements than the 2025R. Plus, the weight of these models offers
enhanced stability when compared to the 2025R to plow through a
tough job. To really dig in, go to page 6.
