It's brief and surface-level, no pricing, no hands-on operation, but useful for shoppers wanting a quick feature checklist before visiting a dealer.
Posted by the Huron Tractor Ltd channel, presented by a self-identified dealership sales rep, so expect a straightforward sales-oriented walkaround.
The 1023E has 23 engine horsepower and 14.2 PTO horsepower, while the 1025R has 25 engine horsepower and 18 PTO horsepower.
The 1025R adds tilt steering, cruise control, fender lights, a two-piece deluxe seat with armrests, and a positional three-point hitch with locking mechanism.
Yes, the 1025R can come standard from the factory with a heated cab or the 260B backhoe, which the 1023E does not offer.
Both tractors use three-cylinder Yanmar liquid-cooled diesel engines, along with twin pedal hydrostatic transmission, power steering, mid PTO, and category 1 three-point hitch.
